I know I am late as ever.. but better late then never.
Healing thoughts and prayers for Ethan Warm thoughts and love for Deb Happy Birthday Ethan! Time to grow up honey! you need to take better care of yourself! Not just for you but for your girl there and the kidlette! I know how it feels to wonder if someone I love is going to make it this time. If only they did a lil something more for themselves it would help everyone. I am not trying to be a bitch. This is called tough love. I have to do it too. My blood sugar is totally out of whack, and a series of other medical issues. I am taking a quarter off of school to get my shit together honey. If I can you can! I love you and I love Deb. Lets be good examples and take care of ourselves, for us and our loved ones. Deb I am here for you whenever. Ducky

Hi deb, I don't know much and haven't read all posts but...sounds like he has an infection. Is he diabetic? If not...gotta find that infection and they have to watch his blood pressure and electrolytes. Especially his potassium. The glucose will feed the enemy which, reducing that sugar brought down his fever...most likely. Tell them to Find the infection. You watch his bp. And hang in there. They should or possibly put him on dialysis to assist his kidney function. I am no health care professional but been through a lot...helping people.
And deep breaths and God Bless...give you strength! Gotta go |

Hey, sorry that I had to run away without finishing. See, I read your post about his high glucose levels...so, wonder if he is diabetic. The ketones can damage the kidneys and those get high when glucose is high. But once the glucose is under control then you move on. It must be monitored obviously and kept under control along with the electrolytes...( the electron balance that help your organs function properly and fluid regulation) So monitor his piss... kidney function And his bp.
My main point is...he must have an infection and it is imperative that they identify it and give the proper medication to eradicate it. The dialysis is not a bad thing because of the ketone overload and the infection. So, don't be afraid of that. It will help him. You may even inquire with the nurse or dr. Or both. And you watch you bp too. God bless and give you both strength. |

DMV it is Diabetic ketoacidosis and yes he is diabetic. Deb is awaiting the kydney test as I type this. It has been a up down roller coaster for both of them but they are watching him closely.
