Greetings,
This is just a brief post, keeping you informed of our current situation here. It's been a rough weekend for Myron and he has been bleeding internally. We have had the nurses out here, and they have been in contact with the doctors. He has been removed from the fragmin (blood thinner) he takes, at least for now as that will only contribute to increased bleeding. But at the same time, not using the blood thinner increases the chance of further blood clots. For the time being his condition is stable and he is eating, drinking, and going to the bathroom as required. Our niece Joy who is a nurse came out (at Myron's request) and spent last night here with us. She is coming again tomorrow evening and night (which gives me a chance to get some much needed sleep). In the meantime, his regular nurse will be here tomorrow, and will be in contact with his doctor. Myron does not wish to go to the hospital, because at this stage of his illness he will go directly into Palliative Care and there he will remain. Myron wishes to remain at home, so we are setting things up to follow his wishes. That's about all I can tell you for now, perhaps I'll know more tomorrow after we have seen the nurse and she has spoken with the doctor. Myron is tired and needs a lot of rest at this time. I ask that you please keep your phone calls to a minimum, as right now I need to spend my time with and caring for Myron. Feel free to send texts, emails or Facebook messages, but I cannot promise when I will reply to them. As I said, right now my focus is Myron. Please keep us in our prayers. Thanks for everything.
Wendy
