Update: We are home from the hospital.. Kenny has a long ,hard recovery period ahead of him, But we know with all the prayers and concerns from our friends[and my sweet sewing friends].. He will be up and enjoying a relatively normal life in a while. Keep praying.. I look so forward to hearing from each of you.. I will update as often as I can.
UPDATE- 2/19/2012
Today has been a pretty rough day for Kenny..He is having alot of nausea..So hasn't been eating. I am sure the nausea is from all the medicine. The doctor called in some phenergan [nausea med] ...this seems to be helping.
Keep praying and know, I apprecaite your sweet comments and prayers ,as does Kenny.
UPDATE: 2/21/2012
This morning started out with a rough morning. Kenny woke with alot of nausea, increased heart rate, and
pain.. He is very pale /ashy color. I gave him some phergan, and pain med. After 2 hours, he was still very sick. I got my oxygen out and after a little while, he seemed to get a little better. He is napping in the recliner now. I pray that when he wakes up , he will feel better.
Please continue to pray. It is such a blessing to know to know all the prayers are going up for him..
I know this is a sewing blog... but no sewing going on now.ha.
UPDATE: 2/27/12
What a wonderful thing to update..Kenny is so much better today.. We have had a long , rough few days.. He began to have muscle spasms and was so nauseated, he couldn't eat anything. We ended up going to the ER on Saturday.. They started IV's and got the spasms to stop.
He is so much better today. He is eating some, and they gave him medicine to help with the muscle spasms.. So hopefully..we are on our way to getting better and better.
thankyou so much for your prayers.I so apprecaite them.. and soon and very soon.. I hope to post some sewing.. [I sure am missing my sewing projects!!!]

ReplyDeleteThank you Charlotte.. we both appreciate your thoughtfullness. God bless and thank you .
DeleteJudy, so glad to hear Kenny made it through surgery, I am praying for his recovery, and for you to be strong as you help him along.

Thank you Trish.. I miss sew weekly too. I hope to get back in the swing of things real soon. Thank you so much for the prayers.
DeleteThoughts are with you Judy.
ReplyDeleteThoughts are with you Judy - my last comment seems to have disappeared, so just letting you know again that I hope all gets back to normal soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you Diane, I appreciate it so much..
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute picture of Kenny, although he does seem a bit more furry than I remember from other photos :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to read your updates and know Kenny has started his recovery. Hope his nausea medicine helps.
Thinking of you both, keep smiling my lovely sewing Maw xxxx
Isn't he a cute furry ...sickie.. teehee
Deletethank you sweet Charlotte.
Forgot to add... Kenny has not seen this photo of himself or the photo I picked out,haha.. He would not appreciate the pink bow and stuff. But hey..I couldn't find a blue bow tie.hahhahaha
DeleteI'm happy everything went well at the hospital Judy. AS you already know, our Great Physician takes care of His children. I will continue praying that Kenny gets stronger and stronger everyday. Take this time to spoil him rotten. lol...
ReplyDeleteThanks Dibbs.. You are so right.. Our Great Physician most definitely takes care of us.. And that is such a comfort.
DeleteNow the spoiling part----- he is ROTTEN, already.. I tell him, he is worse than the kids.ha
Thank you for the prayers..Take care of yourself too.
Judy, I am so sorry to hear that Kenny is still suffering. Pain medication is so tricky; it is so helpful but it can be so very hard on the system too. It tricky to balance pain relief with side effects. I know you are educated and experienced with sick people but the burden of caring for a person in pain is so great. I'll continue to pray not only for Kenny but that God gives you wisdom on when to involve doctors and when to do things yourself. God Bless
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your prayers . I appreciate you so much.
DeleteYou are so right..it is a difficult road.. To try to figure out what ,is the best route to go.
Dear Sweet Judy,
ReplyDeleteAlthough I have been away from the "blogging" world for awhile, you and Kenny have never been far from our thoughts and prayers. Times such as these can really be "testing" for us...look to friends for encouragement...look to our Saviour for comfort and direction.
Continuing to hold you both up daily...and trusting in Him who knows all...
With love,
Laura
Dear Judy,
ReplyDeleteI saw this cute material today (Wizard of Oz-like) and thought of you...praying that Kenny's spasms have subsided and that the medicine is helping. It is so hard to watch someone we love suffer with pain...please know that we are praying for you both each and every day.
With love,
Laura
Thankyou Laura, Kenny has had a bad day today.. I think the good couple days ,was from the steroids they gave him in ER..It has faded today.. Seems we take one step forward and two backward.Please continue to remember him in your prayers. Love, Judy
DeleteHi Laura, thank you so much for all your prayers. I appreciate it so much. With God all things are possible, He is our strength and comfort. You always help me to remember that.
ReplyDeletePlease continue to pray my sweet friend.
Judy, what a cute picture, always love a snuggly teddy!
ReplyDeleteYou and Kenny are continually on my mind. I know better days are ahead!
Hugs to you both!
Cathe
Thanks Cathe,
DeleteHow do you like the teddy bear? I dont think Kenny would like the pink bows???hahaha
