update today-- well it has been three days now since my husband was taken off the vent so far vital signs have been stable he has been verbally responding and following commands staff informs me that his respirations have been labored at times he was at 20-25 early this morning still is in afib though pulse at 96 still being fed through ng tube i am grateful that he is getting the care he needs as for me i am tired but still hanging in there i am unable to visit on a daily basis due to finances i have to realize i have to let them take care of him and i must try to take care of myself or there will be no one to take care of me i hope that i am not being selfish by doing this but i have to keep myself as healthy as i can like i said in another post i am giving it over into gods hands as i cannot do all this alone i am willing to make sacrifices to do what is best for me and my husband i ask that you pray for me to have strength to do what i must do am working some 12 and 8 hour shifts am trying to take care of myself thank you for your prayers and messages this really helps a lot and means a lot may god bless each and every one of you tigger

My dear friends. It is with great saddness and heavy heart that i am letting you all know that my love of my life passed away just before 0830 this morning i know that he went peacefully i was not able to get to the hospital in time for him to take his last breath-- i was walking through the parking lot when the nurse from the sicu called me. i saw him within moments after he had passed away. He did look much at peace. i stayed long enough to say a little prayer for him and then kissed him goodbye. Maybe five or ten minutes i dont know everything has been such a blur. I was alone when i drove to the hospital and drove back alone. I asked god to keep me safe during my trip to and from the hospital. I just let jesus take the wheel. I know not what lies in store for me next but will trust that jesus will be with me. Thank you so much my friends for praying for me. Please continue prayer for me as i start my new journey in life alone. May god bless each and every one of you Tigger2sassy1

(((tigger)))...you will never be alone, my dear.

keep your heart with Jesus.

He will keep you safe.

my heartfelt condolences.

leslie
