3/18/24 - Update on My Husband

I don't believe it. My husband was transferred to rehab yesterday afternoon. He told me that his arm is swollen again; so I hope someone can address that. I didn't get a call from him. I told him to make sure that they put his water and phone close by. Rehab is closer to visit, the parking is easy and there's no $10 Valet charge every time you go there!!! I am hoping that he will be home in about a month. He's already been gone about 6 weeks. Thank you for your continued prayers and support. Photo Credit: Pixabay

I am still not sure what happened regarding that AFib. Then, you have not mentioned which arm. Right or left. We are praying of course. How can Cleveland be so careless.

He is always in AFIB. They can't control it with meds or by shocking his heart. Left arm.

Wish I could come up there and help you, but I’m swamped with doctors appointments and my SIL having surgery this week. But I am praying for you!

Our bigger hospital charges for parking in the parking garages unless it's the weekend, then it's free. Valet parking is available at all times, however there is a charge for it as well. If you are handicapped and in a wheelchair like you are, there is no charge for valet parking. But we pay here for any type of premium parking, it's just the norm.

Yes. They charged $10 each day for Valet Parking. It was much easier than walking really far to the parking garage.

@LindaOHio All big complexes like that have started charging for parking. Often in bigger cities they do it to keep people from parking there who are not using the facility or visiting. It’s a pain, but I can see why they do that.

There was an infection; but they treated it with antibiotics. But it swelled up again. I will ask him about that tonight when he calls.
