Hi Boomers
My husband is going into surgery tomorrow afternoon.
I was hoping to have a few prayers sent his way.
He's 71 and has to have a blockage removed from his left leg.
They have him hopped up on morphine right now.
They told him there is a chance that he may have a heart attack during surgery.
But it is very rare. Please pray for him. We have been together 30 years so far.
I'm praying for many more.

Cathy

Hi
He is now in surgery. They said I should wait till 7 tonight,to phone and see how he's doing.
Thank you all again for your prayers and wishes.

Cathy

Sending positive thoughts.

Thank you all for your support. Brian's out of surgery and onto the vascular ward now. They told me that the sound in his left leg is a lot stronger now. It will take some time to get more circulation in his foot. I'm crying as I'm typing this. I'm so relieved and very happy. I can finally get some sleep now and relax a bit.
Thank you again for all your prayers and thoughts and wishes. I'll keep you updated on his progress.

Cathy

Cathy that is wonderful news! I am so happy all went well!
Take Care and keep us posted. I will keep sending those healing prayers for Brian!

Hi Boomers
Here's an update on Brians progress.
He is still in a lot of pain but getting better.
They had to remove his toe on his left foot. The one next to the baby toe.
They just used a local instead of putting him under again.
When he woke up from surgery he was totally terrified. He said he was hearing voices and hallucinating. But he his in better spirits now.
Thank you all for your support.
Cathy

Sorry to hear about those "after effects" Cathy1 - it will have been a big ordeal for your Husband !!

But good news that he is in better spirits now.

And I hope his recovery goes well

Cathy1, so sorry about his toe and the effects of anesthesia. I hope his recovery will be smooth and quick. Hugs to you both.

Thanks for the update Cathy1. Hopefully your husband is on a good road to recovery now.

Prayers and Hugs on the way.

Cathy. I hope hubby is home and feeling better!

I hope your hubby gets well soon, and don't forget to take care of yourself. Still sending prayers and positive waves your way.

Hi Boomers
The doctor is suppose to take out the staples in his left leg sometime today.
He had a shower for the first time in 3 weeks. He said he feels a lot cleaner now. They removed his catheter yesterday. They nurse braided his hair for him. He hasn't had a shave for 3 weeks also. I think he will look like Santa the next time I see him. I have to rely on volunteers to take me to the hospital. They have been short of late. But he his eating well again. Still not sure when they will release him. The hospital will set up home care for him. I am doing well now. I'm eating a bit more than I was. Thank you all again for all your support.
Take Care
Cathy

Thank you for the update Cathy...we will keep you and hubby in our daily prayers

Dan

Cathy, that sounds like good news. I hope he is soon home. Thanks for the update

That sounds quite positive, Cathy! I'm sorry you haven't been able to see him.

I hope he's home soon, Cathy. Take good care of yourself and I send many positive thoughts your way.

Thanks for the update and I hope your Husband's recovery goes well and that he is soon back home with you, Cathy1.

Take good care now.

Cheers.

Thanks for the update, I hope hubby can be home with you soon.

Hi Cathy, so sorry to read of your hubby's problems, just now seeing your post, but glad to read he's doing much better (and you too!) Sending prayers for continued healing.

Mary

Hi everyone. Great news. BRIAN IS HOME !!!!!!!
Sorry for not updating till now. He came home yesterday. He is using a walker but he's walking. I'm so happy. He was in the hospital for 2 months. That was the longest we have been apart in 31 years. Our cat didn't seem to recognize him.
I guess he had that new hospital smell or something. He still has a way to go but progress is being made. He says he is so glad to be home. Ok got to tend to hubby. So thank you all for your support and god bless.
Ciao for now.
Cathy and Brian

Wonderful news Cathy1!

That is fantastic, Cathy! May he continue to heal!

Wonderful news.

Fantastic!

Thank you all.

Great news Cathy...so happy to hear the good news!

Great News Cathy... now you can take a deep breath and relax a bit, best of luck moving forward for you and your hubby..

Best wishes and may all be well from here on out, Cathy. Hugs to both of you.

Good news, Cathy1 !! I'm very pleased for you both. And let's hope it continues and that your Husband carries on doing well

Prayers and wishes out too you both and may he continue to get better..

Thank God Prayers answered

Thank you all for your wishes and support. Brian is starting to walk around without the walker now. His stability still needs work. His chiropractor is coming to crack his back in 2 weeks. He doesn't usually do house calls,but he is making an exception for Brian. I'm hoping this will help him,if not physically,then mentally. We have all these doctors and nurses coming in every week,it gets exhausting. Again thank you all for your support and caring.
I love gameboomers and all the people that help others.
Take care and I'll keep updating if that's alright.
Thank you Cathy and Brian

Good that he is making progress Cathy. Hopefully soon, you won't have all the doctors and nurses coming in and out and you can relax.

All sounding pretty good, Cathy1, and we hope that will continue for you both

Cathy1 that is wonderful news that Brian has started walking on his own. More healing prayers on the way.
Take Care.

THat sounds great, Cathy! Praying that life will return to normal quickly.

Ana

I glad that Brian is able to get around without the walker, I still will keep you both in my prayers and hope you'll both have many more years together.
Take care...

Sending prayers, Cathy1.

Big hugs to you and to Brian, Cathy.

Good news, Hugs for you and Brian.

Still sending prayers but the news sounds good! Thanks for the updates.

always there for you Hugs and Luvs to you both

Well, that is really good news. Every step he takes is a step toward total recovery.

Keeping you both in our prayers

Good news update

So glad he is making progress
