Nick came home from the hospital late Friday evening. On Saturday, he began to vomit again, but instead of returning him to the hospital, we decided to wait it out and see of it would stop on its own. Eventually it did. This morning Nick fainted twice because of all the fluid he lost due [...]
On Sunday, I had to return Nick to the hospital. He had only been home for a few hours from his previous hospital stay when he became very ill and I had to take him back. Right how Nick is unable to swallow anything without immediately vomiting. He also has pain in his upper abdomen [...]
Nick was released from the hospital on Sunday, October 6th. His ankle surgery went fine and we thought that all would go well. As it turns out I had to return Nick to the emergency room within a few hours of bringing him home. Right after we got home, his blood sugar was up to [...]
On September 30th, Nick fell on a piece of ice in our kitchen and fell hard. We were told in the emergency room that Nick had broken his tibia and fibula right as they join the ankle. Yesterday he had surgery on the ankle to correct the damage; they found that both broken bones had [...]
Just got out of the hospital after contracting pneumonia. Not being able to breath isn’t a whole lot of fun. However, a couple days of respiratory therapy and antibiotics and I’m good as new. There are a couple of things that I really want to write about, but I have to look into them before [...]
Results of the procedure are that there is no significant blockage in any of my arteries. Therefore, the doctor did not place a stent as was planned. Of the three possible outcomes, this was the least likely. I don’t know what I did to deserve it, but I am not going to look a gift [...]
As I am sure you have noticed, this blog has not been updated regularly the past couple of weeks. I am going through some health problems right now, the most urgent of which is a possible artery blockage. Tomorrow I will undergo a procedure where the doctor will confirm if there is a blockage, and [...]
This is the second in a series of posts which will explain my positions on various social and political issues. These posts will appear infrequently. Almost everyone knows the statistics concerning organ donations for transplants, and if you don’t know the numbers, you more than likely at least know that the demand for transplant organs [...]
This is the first in a series of posts which will explain my positions on various social and political issues. These posts will appear infrequently. There is, perhaps, no subject which ignites the passions quite like abortion. Regardless of which side of the debate you are on, chances are that you have held your opinion [...]
As regular readers know, one of the many maladies I suffer from is called gastroparesis. This nasty condition tends to affect long-time diabetics like myself, and can be a real problem to deal with. In a nutshell, this condition inhibits your digestive track’s ability to move the food you eat through your system. So, the [...]
Doctors have developed a transplant technique which can allow recipients to forgo the use of anti-rejection drugs: The treatment involved weakening the patient’s immune system, then giving the recipient bone marrow from the person who donated the organ. In one experiment, four of five kidney recipients were off immune-suppressing medicines up to five years later. [...]
If the memos recently obtained by Judicial Watch from the Clinton Library are any indication, nothing good. A June 18, 1993 internal Memorandum entitled, “A Critique of Our Plan,” authored by someone with the initials “P.S.,” makes the startling admission that critics of Hillary’s health care reform plan were correct: “I can think of parallels [...]
