This morning I awoke to John caterwauling again. He wakes me up to do the littlest things! "Honeybunch!.... Honeybunch! But this time it was different. Usually he adds on, "I need some Ice Water" or "I need to take my pills" or something else that he could probably do for himself, but I have spoiled him.
It was just "Honeybunch" "Honeybunch". So I got up and noticed he was not in his easy chair. Ok, maybe he went back to bed. He had awakened me before 6 to change his foley into a leg bag so he could get up. I obliged and went back to bed. (We don't sleep together any more because "MY" snoring keeps him awake!)
So I rounded the corner and was headed for the bathroom, when I saw him laying on the floor in the kitchen. He had made himself a cup of coffee and was going to take it to the table. He doesn't know what happened. He had passed out! So I sat him up and he passed out again!
OMG! I thought he died! He stopped breathing! His eyes opened and the iris' dilated! He was not there! I lay him back down and slapped him lightly and called his name, but there was no response! I started positioning him to do cpr when he came back and started breathing! I swear I looked into dead eyes. They reminded me of glass pony beads with the color inside. Those eyes are seared into my brain!
Of course I called 911 and the ambulance brought him to St. Mary's hospital. When the first responder arrived and I explained the above they said it was "Syncope" (Sink-o-pea) and that most people who see a person pass out and their eyes roll back in their head think they die. His eyes did not roll back! But thank the Lord, he did come back!
They have found three things so far! #1 He is severely anemic. They have now given him two units of blood! The second thing is he has a little bit of a urine infection! And #3 he does not have a blood clot!
They have admitted him and I will be here in the room with him tonight. I don't want to miss the DR. in the morning! They have said that they will keep him until they know why the anemia. They need to know if he is not making enough cells or if there is something somewhere that is using them all up.
Well, it is 12:50 am. So I need to get some rest. But first, here is the preview for Day 3's download and the link to go get it!
