Wednesday, May 27

It's more of that no news is good news stuff. John is back in the hospital at Emory, but doing okay. He has been feeling okay overall, not much energy and not much appetite, but not any major rhythm problems to speak of. This morning however, he started feeling very badly so we headed to Emory. They went ahead and admitted him and will decide tomorrow whether to send him back home or keep him. He didn't get shocked which is good, but he felt awful. They gave him some medicines and some IV fluids, since he may have been a little bit dehydrated. He feels a lot better tonight, but since he tends to have some pretty big swings from small medicine changes they are monitoring him very closely.

Even the ER doctor who saw him told the transplant doctors that he looked pretty bad, and they are used to seeing some awfully sick folks down there. Our doctors have been great as usual, so we just have to wait and see.

By the way, Nicole got back from Kenya today, she is very tired but it was great and she is looking forward to spending the summer with the Daraja African Children's Choir and traveling around the southeast. We're glad to have her back in the US safe and sound.

I'll try to do better at keeping you all posted!

  1. Hi Missy!
    Hurray! Tim has finally helped me get registered with Google so I can be a follower on your blog. Your Mom sent me the link two weeks ago, and I could not figure out everything. Of course it was great to be able to read your updates though.
    Have checked out Nicole's blog and the website for the Daraja African Children's Choir. What an amazing opportunity for her. Plus Trevor with his five week Debate Conference...in Michigan, right?
    So bummed that John ended up in the hospital again and feels so badly. That is the worst -we are continuing our prayers for the perfect heart for our Muffin Man!
    We love you all!
    Elizabeth et. al.
