We spent the day in the ER where Steve was taken by ambulance after a quick onset of pretty extreme respiratory distress. Diagnosis is a blood clot in each lung. He’ll be on 2 Lovenox injections a day from now on. There was talk of admitting him to the hospital, but he really wanted to come home and since he was doing pretty well, his stats were good, etc., and since we can have the hospice nurse come to the house twice a day, they let him come home. He’s on oxygen and we’re taking very good care of him and can call either hospice or 911 if need be.
Jenna and her family were here so she and Joelle were at the hospital all day and it was such a blessing and comfort to be all together.
Steve’s resting comfortably now and the girls and I are taking a breath. It occurred to me today that this is the first real emergency crisis we’ve had through this whole experience and for that we’re so thankful.
Resting in God’s promises,
Keren
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this, especially considering the day you've had. I think of your family so very often and hope that you know how much we are praying.
