My son is in the hospital

Post by Just Tony »

So my son developed sepsis after developing pneumonia in rapid order about 4 weeks ago and has been in a PICU being treated with several different processes. After being on a ventilator to help him breathe, then being moved to an ECMO device which pumped his blood out, reoxygenated it, and pumped it back in, being put on dialysis because his body couldn't keep up with the process going and massive swelling, he's been progressing fairly fairly well up until the stroky had 6 days ago.

That sounds like a lot, doesn't it?

However, there is good news involved here:

This is him with his arm around my wife, very much awake, and responding very well to treatment. This makes me happy. On another positive note, I get to take my frustration out by banning Russian spammers.

Thank you. Current update is that they're going to start weaning him off of the vent so that he'll be breathing on his own

Beat me to it, and my sentiments exactly. Sorry that you are dealing with this, and I hope that they can get your son healthy and in a full recovery. As far as the Russian bots, take down as many as you want.
