09-19-2008

Mom had to take dad to the Southeast hospital last night. He was fatigue, had a rash, his urine was red, fever climbed to 102, and he developed a cough. I spoke with them earlier and they got back to the house about 1:00 this morning. When they got to the hospital last night his blood pressure was low, white blood cell count was higher than it was the other day, platelet level was low, and bilirubin was elevated. He was dehydrated so they hooked him to an IV. They took blood to check the liver, bladder, etc. They gave him an antibiotic, told him to drink more water, said he had bronchitis and sent him home. We’re waiting on the blood tests.
Dad is in good spirits.
Enjoy your day!
