			Good Lord deb!!  
		
		
		
		
		
		
			You poor girl. Ok a couple of things here...Ecoli does not just create itself it has to come from somewhere. Not sure what they are telling you about that. The kidney stone can be insanely painful..been there..there are some natural therapies that will help to flush it out, break it up. PM me or hit me up on FB if you want to chat about that. Also food and nutrition at this point is crucial and most Dr's are not conversant in this arena, so let me know how I may help. Raw ginger juice cleared a stone for me, aloe juice will help the organs to detox and will comfort the digestive tract which is under attack right now. Some good immune boosters are easy to add to the food/beverage routine. Make sure that they are giving him a diet that is easy on the renal fucntions, no high phosphate foods and so on. Hugs to you!! (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((deb)))))))) )))))))))))))))))))))))))

			UPDATE ON ETHAN  
		
		
		
		
		
		
			The 3mm stone passed , however the CT Scan yesterday showed an 8 mm stone that is stuck in his right ureter. We are in the preop awaiting a procedure where they will put a stint in to help open the ureter up to hopefully allow the stone to erode quickly. Still waiting on the other Drs to assess him today.

			I know it has been a lil bit since the last update, but there was not much difference to post on. This morning the kidney Dr came in and said Ethan's kidneys are back to normal. YAY!. Ethan is happy cause now he can be taken off of the Renal Diet and actually eat. For those that don't know, the Renal Diet is very bland and you can only have like half of a hamburger patty and any all meats. We are waiting for the other Drs to come in, but so far no release date yet. He is more cognitive and alert for longer periods of time, and there has not been a fever in a few days. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes,, and please keep them coming. They are working. It has been a week and a day since we have been in the hospital.

			PRAISE REPORT!!!!! The infection is gone!!! No more Sepsis!! His kidneys are back to normal!! His blood sugars are still semi out of whack, but not near as bad as before. A Rehab Dr came in this morning and ordered Physical Therapy to come in tomorrow to access him to see if he is a candidate for a rehabilitation place to help him get his strength back. If so, that is where he is going in the next couple of days. If not, then most likely will be released to go home tomorrow.

			They are transferring him to a rehabilitation facility tonight. He is medically ready to go home, but he is not physically strong enough yet. The rehab place will help him with that aspect. Not sure how long he will be there yet, but Praise God for small steps.

			He is settled in the rehab place, and finally sleeping. I decided to stay with him tonight so i can make sure he is ok, access the staff, and talk to the Dr tomorrow. If things go the way i hope, i will be going home tomorrow and spend the first night in my own bed in almost two weeks. We are unsure yet how long he will be in here.. hopefully not too long. We need things to get back to normal. Thank Y'all again for all the prayers and well wishes. i love Y'all so so much

			UPDATE ON ETHAN 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			He is settling pretty well in the rehabilitation facility, and from the looks of things he is there for at least 28 days. He is not happy about it, but realizes that he needs it . I am not allowed to spend the nights there unless i am a resident, which causes bittersweet feelings for me. I want to be there to make sure he is treated right, and doing what he should, but i so desperately need to be home and reconnect with Anita and the fur babies.. plus i HAVE to start taking care of me. I am gonna try to get a vehicle tomorrow.. hopefully it will work.. cause i need my own independence and transportation.. Just weird being here without him. *sighs* Trying to think positive.

			UPDATE ON ETHAN 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Today was a good day. I got a vehicle today and was able to take Blaze( Ethan's dog) to him. That made the first time Ethan has seen her since the 2nd. He has had Blaze since she was 3 weeks old, and bottle fed her.. and now she is almost 13 yrs old. I was able to also bring Anita and Blaze and Peaches back up to to see him again tonight. It made his day and he thanked me several times. I am glad that i was able to brighten his day some. Ethan is working with the Occupational therapy to try to get his strength back, but it is a slow road.
