3/11/24 - Update on My Husband

He didn't get transferred to rehab. His blood pressure was too high; and he has a bowel blockage. I don't know if he will be transferred today or not. His cousin and I plan on visiting him. Was hoping not to have to brave the chaos around Cleveland Clinic again; but it looks like we will have to. When I spoke with him last night, he was in a lot of pain and didn't want to talk.. I hope he feels better today. Thank you for your continued prayers and support. Photo Credit: Pixabay

No, it’s best he does not go to rehab until he has less medical issues to combat. They are not outfitted for that kind of care in the rehab, unfortunately. I am sorry to hear he is in pain. Hopefully the doctors can get a handle on all of this.

I hope they can get a handle on all of it. Being in pain is no fun at all.

@JudyEv I'm hoping her son is better and she can take me Friday. I just don't want to risk my husband catching something. He has enough problems.

My husband's cousin couldn't take me. Her son has a fever. Just as well because he was between Cleveland Clinic and the rehab facility yesterday.

They don't give him the best medical care at rehab so I know it is hard but it is best that he stays where they are taking good care of him. Hope he feels better when you go see him.

Sorry to hear he is in so much pain and not talkative. He's been on a bit of a roller coaster ride, on not the fun kind. Do they know what caused the blockage?

He doesn't eat his veggies and fruit like he should. He had a week of eating pot roast and other beef meals.

@vandana7 Nope he's still at Cleveland Clinic. He is now in Surgery ICU with a bunch of wires attached to him again. He is almost always in AFIB. Now his blood pressure is too low again or too high....I forget which.

Hope they can get his pressure lower and of course deal with the bowel blockage before they transfer him. I'm sure he'll be happy to see you today. It's too bad, though, that you have to deal with all that traffic to the clinic.
