Pneumonia for 2009 (1/22/09)
Mike's pneumonia has caused him to take two steps back but its okay. His attending physician would like for him to stay on IV antibiotics for awhile. So, what does this mean? Well, Mike was transferred to Plano Speciality Hospital yesterday afternoon (1/21/09) for long term IV antibiotics and also to have his sodium levels monitored. He will also be able to get a little therapy while he is there. Sonny saw him before he transferred and said he looked good and was pleased. The set up at this hospital is like LifeCare at Willis-Knighton. On the positive side... God is Good the kids and I will see him this weekend, he will be under the care of his pulmonary physician who has been seeing him as an outpatient for the past several months and has seen him prior to this hospitalization, and he will get some form of physical therapy, he is still moving his right side, he will still hold your hand and open his eyes to command. Where do we go from here? I do no know yet. Will Mike go back to Pate? I do not know yet, Everything will depend on how long he stays in the hospital for his pneumonia. Please continue to pray but I do know that everything will be fine. It just takes time.
