Prayers sent for Steve and Arnies friend. A little over a year ago I lost my Mom to pancreatic cancer. She was diagnosed in July and she was gone just after my Dads birthday in October. Later the next year in June my Dad became sick with massive chills every 8-9 hours and the urgent care said angina and sent him home. The next day the ambulance had to be called and we went to the ER. There the nurse very first thing said that he was sepsis. He was transferred across the ER to the ICU where he was stabilized. It was a UTI. After 7 days in the hospital and then 2 weeks in skilled nursing on IV antibiotics he was OK. It was a VERY close call. Best wishes and prayers sent. Quoting: joinca Septic shock is what my husband was in hospital for last year. 11 days in ICU, 4 in cardiac main and they wanted 2 weeks in rehab but he nixed that and came home to do it. Quoting: ~Jazzy~ After all of that he had 90% blockage and a stent put in the first day of July. Now after 6 months he can get off of the plavix and we are getting him ready for hip replacement in a couple of weeks. My Mom was 88 and my Dad is 96. You work and then retire and life gets faster and faster.

Simple...tell her not to be scared because of what she is going to see. He'll be intubated, have a catheter and MULTIPLE iv's. (Hubby had 19 at one time) He'll be wearing BP cuffs on his ankles, heart monitor tabs and they might put in a PICC line (a catheter directly into a major vein in the neck, chest or groin), depending on how his blood pressure is doing. I won't lie. Sepsis is fatal 50% of the time. It all depends on him and how fast they can get the infection under control. To know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders.
