Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / July 2007Update on Hubby's stroke July 13
The neurosurgeon keeps saying he's doing fine. He has pneumonia which was expected. He is still on a ventilator but they are talking about weaning him from it. They aren't saying when; I'm hoping tomorrow. His blood pressure is very low and they have to get it up to do a MRI on his brain. The pneumonia is making the BP drop and he never was very high anyway. We know so little and everything is measured in tiny increments. I have a feeling when they get the tubes out of his throat and the pneumonia under control we will know more as he will be able to communicate. I'm so thankful I was here when it happened. He seems to know us and has done things such as squeeze our hands. He's such a fighter and he's doing a heck of a job fighting this, too. Please keep him in your prayers, thoughts, or just send good vibes his way. He needs another miracle or two to get through this in one piece. They still have him at a 60% chance of survival.

It truly is inspirational to hear of a fighter like that. My prayers and best wishes to the OP's Husband. You've got our prayers, thoughts and vibes. I wish all the best for you and George. Good luck. Alan You have my prayers too Bev for your Hubby. shirleyann Bev -- Our prayers are with you and George. You've been there for us I hope our prayers will do some good for you all. -- John Bev, We're with you guys all the way, and while I can't speak for others in the group, I'd feel confident that they also are . I know from personal experience that he'll probably feel better with the tubes gone and being able to sip a bit of water. Again, our prayers and best wishes are with both of you.

Both prayers and good vibes are coming your way from us. Thank You for the note. We all have our thoughts with you and our good wishes. You are indeed a strong person to stick through yet another stumble on this winding road of life. Your strength helps your husband. John Loomis Bev - I'll never forget how you helped me cope with my husband's prostate cancer (even calling me!) Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your husband as you fight this latest battle. Good luck!!! Debbie > ...
