Sharon, thank you, thank you for being there for Jan. I'm thinking it is a

" Godincidence "

that she called you by mistake as the crisis with Jim unfolded. Thank you also

for sharing

details with us. We need to hear them.

being answered.

jim did spike a 102 fever at 4am today but is taking cipro and is improving. he

is

recieviung oxygen thru the nose cannula. his color is almost normal, his fever

is back

down. the hospital is great per jan. she said he has a huge room and slept in a

'fairly

comfortable' chair that folded down into a bed. she said the staff is great and

after asking

jan what jim could do, they got him up and walking some today. jim was abl to

pull

himself up from teh wheelchair by holding on to the bars along the wall. jan is

trying to

feed him but he wasnt swallowing so she let him try to feed himself he is eating

and

swallowing, slowly, but he is eating. and jan was so excited that jim yelled a

her for trying

to get him to eat. we both said he is getting his spunk back.

> several days ago, jan noticed a small spot on jims back or backside, sorry i

forgot

which, and pointed it out to teh nh, the hosp took a picture of it yestrerday ,

it is now

blistred. this too upset jan, she said she will go to the ombudsman when jim

goes back to

the nh.

all
