It's been quite a week for Brian. I had to call the ambulance on Sunday morning because he wasn't feeling well. Brian ended up in septic shock and has been in the ICU ever since. Doctors found a kidney stone that was obstructing the kidney, which caused an infection. Unfortunately, that infection moved into the bloodstream. Brian also had a bad UTI, most likely resulting from the kidney issues He still has several kidney stones that need to be removed, but that can't happen until the infection is completely gone.
The good news is Brian is responding well to the IV meds they are giving him. If his next blood culture comes back negative, we can hopefully head home in a few more days.
Being back in the ICU brings up tough memories.from when this all began. Luckily, Brian is in great spirits and the staff loves him. We are very appreciative of the amazing care he's receiving.
We welcome any prayers/good thoughts/positive vibes you send our way.
On a side note...Brian is on my "heine" to send out a golf update. I will try to post that tomorrow. Thank you for all of the donations and sponsorships for the tournament. We've been receiving items from the Amazon Wishlist each day to use in our raffle baskets for the 19th hole celebration. We continue to be humbled by the kindness and generosity of everyone. xoxo
