I couldn't have said it better, so I won't--just know that the same thoughts are coming from me.

Okay, wanted to update y'all before we leave for the hospital.
I just spoke to Keith. He is very sleepy. He said they kept him up all night, doing this and that; including moving him to a private room!

No emergencies during the night.

I will be home after a bit. #1 will be staying with him today. I really want to be there, but the animals can't take care of themselves. Tomorrow I will stay with him and #1 will stay here with the critters.


Thanks so much for your continued good wishes and prayers.

biddyboo, after more than two years on the forum, I consider y'all family. Keith and I have only his two daughters here with us in Arkansas.

I am so SICK of driving!

I put 170 miles on my jeep today and let me tell ya, the scenery between here and Texas can get real old, real quick. Plus there's this one turn in Texarkana I keep forgetting to make.

Multiple U turns in Mc D's parking lot.
Keith is in good spirits today. He's getting something like coumadin in his IV and shots in his belly *ouch* of another anti-coagulant. I still don't know the exact # of pulmonary embolisms. I wasn't there when the doctor made rounds this morning. However, Keith's breathing has improved, so I am hopeful that means the clots are resolving.
He had an echocardiogram this morning and his heart is in good shape. No further damage.
He's already worried about bills, work, me, everything. When you lay in a hospital bed long enough you find nothing to do but think.
I told him we're on a strict "one day at a time" policy from here on out.
We'll make it through this and be just fine.
Blessings y'all!

So glad to hear that his heart is doing well, just gotta get the rest of him fixed up. You be safe in all your travels.

To both of you, prayers and hugs. I'm glad to hear that Keith is breathing better, the medicines hopefully will continue to do their job.

Please take care of yourself, Gritsar. I am glad DD#1 is there with you. Drive carefully. Sending all of you good vibes and really positive thoughts.

Now I'm the one doing this>>>>>

I have to let DSD #1 use my jeep to come back to the farm from the hospital tomorrow morning. As much as I hate doing it, it doesn't make sense for me to drive 170 miles round-trip just to bring her back to the farm.
I'll be staying at the hospital all day and night tomorrow and come home Friday morning.
Tonight I have an appt. with my house. It's in desperate need of cleaning. Yes, I know I should be resting, but I can't rest well with my house a mess - it's that OCCD (obsessive compulsive cleaning disorder) again.
