Joe's 10 day trip to yankee land/Tiffany's surgery thread

[vollygirl]

Little hiccup in recovery. She has developed an infection in one of the cuts, her body just isn't normal. Got a fever today, and the Dr wanted to see her. They couldn't get her in to a wound specialist until mid april, so the only way to get her seen for it was to admit her. Hopefully it's just for tonight, but she's currently in the hospital.

Well crap.

Two steps forward and one step back, but overall it’s still moving forward!

^^Dis Right HERE! Keep your head and especially hers up brother.

 

[joevol33]

Me and little bit got to go in and see her. Took her some chicken stir fry a friend had made us. She's still waiting on an actual room, but they let us in. Had to take her supplies anyway.

Damn

 

[NEVolFan]

She’s a trooper.... love that smile in spite of it all.
Would be nice if you left your steppi stool for her... easier to get in and out out the bed. You can thank me later.

 

[joevol33]

One positive, she's in a room that has lighthouses on the border. She's doing okay, just high white blood counts still, and a little fever. Miss her being here.

A little dark in that room... maybe you could use that lightbulb to brighten it up.

Well, didn't come home today, and they said not to get hopeful about tomorrow. Her numbers are still high, and they're still treating the one cut area. I'm worried she's gonna get immune to antibiotics, and then it will be a problem.

the Drs should will use something else if its not working - my grandsons med was changed because of the same reason and hopefully no more seizures for a long time now

Praying Tiffany kicks that infection to the curb quickly!

Have faith the doctors know what they’re doing. Have they said anything to you about her getting immune?

Yeah, her urologist here has been worrying about it for months. Each time she's had to have iv antibiotics they've switched it up to try and prevent it.

 

[joevol33]

Had a friend come get the girls for choir practice. I wanted them to go, and I just needed to be alone. Trying to stay positive for them, and especially Tiffany, but just having a moment of wanting to cry or hit something. I feel like I want to break down, but can't. I know it doesn't make sense, my heart just hurts for her. I want her here, and better.

I hate you have that extra worry.

Maybe you should while you’re alone. Doesn’t mean you’re weak or not trusting in God.

 

[Tin Man]

Joe, find strength in the love and prayers of you VN family. Share these with Tiffany and your girls. All my best, brother in Orange.

Joe, does her surgeon in NH know?

 

[joevol33]

Joe, does her surgeon in NH know?

Yeah, the dr here is in contact with him. The cut is doing better, but not her kidneys. There's a high bacteria count, and they're trying to figure out what the bacteria is. She said they told her they may put a port in tomorrow.

I know, and I did. It helped going to church, and having good friends to pray with. The kids give us a preview of their new song, that helped also.

I’m glad he’s in the loop. So sorry that Tiffany is having to go through this again.

 

[joevol33]

I will say also, my best friend (I know it's silly saying that at 45, but it's hard to even put in words how much he's always been there for me) is constantly texting and calling. He's a good encourager, thankful for that.

It is not silly saying that at any age. The best friend I ever had took his own life 12 years ago. We hadn’t seen each other in a while, but I still miss him terribly.

That's rough.
