RE: Bearcarver's health

[alaskanbear]

Here is the latest update from Linda. Hang in there Bear, You'll be home soon.

John is still in the hospital. This is the 17th day. Since they drained his lung of 2 liters of blood and fluid, his breathing is better. They even discontinued the oxygen yesterday. It seems that his kidneys are the biggest problem now. They may be doing kidney dialysis soon. His kidneys were fine before he went in the hospital.

He is very tired and weak yet. It's very frustrating because his recovery is taking so long. The doctors keep telling us the surgery was very long and damaging to his body.

He will probably have to go to rehab center when he leaves the hospital.

I have another update from Linda for everyone. This good news!!

There is talk about John being released from hospital in a day or two. Heart seems to be okay. Kidneys still only functioning at 15% to 20% but no dialysis yet. The renal doctor wants to wait and see if the kidney's recover more on their own.

Linda

Prayers be workin gents and ladies, keep um coming!!
