Default . Re: Update on my wife

Thanks all!! I told her you are all praying and she said thats nice of all of you!!

I said you don't know them yet!! :o ;)

Turbo,

My wife is diabetic, heart, and vascular disease. She had been in the hospital for a host of other problems, mostly pneumonia.

The blood flow to the leg was shut off by clogged veins and that is were they did the first bi-pass, aorta to both groin's, this gave a good source of flow to both legs.

2 months later they did another bi-pass in her thigh were the vain was no good.

then 1 year later the 2nd bi-pass failed and they did the third bi-pass that started this thread.

When at the rehab she got a infection and that ended up causing the need for another operation to clean the wound and inspect the graphed vain.

That was a month ago. Now this whole new infection!! They have no idea were or what started this infection but its bad!!

All antibiotics have failed to help so far?? They have a culture at the infection control now and by tomorrow after noon we should no something and they will say what meds will fight this strain of infection.

So there you have it a brief history and diary of the last 19 months!

Thanks again guys!!!!!!!!!!!
