Fred is in the Hospital in Peterborough -- The Lakefield Paramcdics took him there last evening--It is a combination of is flu bug, plus the "vocal cords" not closing, allowing him to aspirate -which seemed to happen--causing his lungs to fill with fluids--thus giving him Pneumonia in both lungs-- He is quite ill--on IV fluids. He seems much better this afternoon--not as tired --- but too weak to walk--I believe he will recover--but it will take time--It has been quite a night--(last night) and again to-day , he seems so weak-- I shall keep you posted--Lynda
Thinking of you both and hoping Fred will be better soon. Hugs and prayers. Joan
ReplyDeleteThanks Joan--He seemed a bit better this evening--just very weak-Lynda

DeleteMarti here. I am sad to hear that, but glad to hear that he is getting care that only a hospital can probably do (when one is 95). I will hope and pray that he gets well soon!
ReplyDeleteIt is a nice day here, 74 degrees! I made it through the whole 5 hours at work, and didn't feel as weak as I did yesterday. It is time to walk the dog.

ReplyDeleteSorry Fred ended up in the hospital but I'm sure he will get the best of care. Keeping you both in my thoughts. When he recovers (Yes, I said when!!! :) ), maybe this will help him get moved up on the list to get a doctor locally.
