Title: bad news and prayers
Post by: beefmann on June 24, 2011, 03:48:55 PM
just a note

my Brother went into ICU with a very low heart beat and low blood pressure. He now has a tube in his throat  to help with his breathing and heavily sedated , he did suffer a heart attack back on April 30  and has been up and down holding his  own, though today is the  worst he has been, Our family is upset and scared for his life that he may not be with us much  longer,

We are asking for prayers for his recovery..


Thank you all

Dale

Update on Brother

found out that his heart had stopped in the hospital for 10 minutes plus and is in serious  condition,  with assisted breathing and a  feeding tube in his nose, He is now in a drug induced coma to help let his  body recover.

Doctors  have indicated  that he may have  some brain damage and will not  know for sure till they  try to wake him.

I Can never thank you enough for all of your prayers and well wishes for my  brother. My  family  and I  know it is only  words and wish you  let you  all know  that your prayers are very appreciated and welcomed.

Just saw this post Dale. I am sorry for being late and really feel for you and your family. Of course our prayers are with you. I spent a couple of months with my mother and she just passed in January. Still not up to doing much smoking. I just try to read most of the posts, but have not felt up to posting much.

Not on as much so just noticed this. 

Dale,  I pray that you and your family feel the loving arms of God as they wrap around you in comfort in your and your family's time of fear and unknown.  I pray for healing and for the ability of the doctors, nurses, and all the other caregivers to fully use the skills that they have.

update:

while my brother is still critical, he is alert which is a good sign, the doctors were concerned that he might have brain damage on Friday and  Saturday , yesterday he was having  some motor control and responding to questions even under heavy sedation. This is good news  However is still critical, Today he will start dialysis to remove excess fluids and toxins that are in his system, His liver has basically shut down. Am unsure if it  was because of the heart attack, him being a diabetic or on the medications the doctors are giving him.


Thank you  all for your prayers, well wishes and concern for my family

Dale
