is out of the Hospital-(warning long message & off topic of DS/Autism)

August 21, 2010

Group thanks for all the prayers and well wishing. has really felt bad.

Char thanks for keeping the group updated on 's condition. As Char stated

's school called me Wed. and said 's coloring was off and his breathing

was irregular. Once I got him in the car from school he started clutching his

chest. I headed straight to the hospital thinking it might be his heart. He had

heart surgery in 2003 and things have been great, no meds etc. However anyone

can have heart problems at any time. The ER took an x-ray and it was cloudy

possibly fluid from the heart or possible pneumonia. The heart Dr. ruled out

heart complications and they could not confirm but, thought it was bi-lateral

pneumonia. We were in ICU until Thurs when he was moved to a less restrictive

floor. I was told that the pneumonia could have been caused by the open wound he

has on his head from cellulitis in 2007. I asked them to do testing to check out

his open wound and they brought in a surgeon. The surgeon thinks like me that

this wound needs to be cleaned out and stitched. The surgeon look at an MRI from

2007 and found a bone abnormality. The surgeon asked if anyone told me about the

bond abnormality in 2007. Of course not. The brain looked fine but the bone was

gone. We are going Sept. 20th for a new MRI for comparisons.In 2008 we did 40

HBOT treatments and healed the 2 wounds on his head. A month after we were back

from VA he got cellulitis on his face and transferred it to his head again. We

have seen dermatologist,wound care specialist trying to get the wound to heal. I

also have been doing biomedical intervention to try and rebuild his immune

system. was release yesterday from the hospital despite a temp of 101. I

hope we get his head fixed soon.Cyndi B
