Re: Classic Heartbeat?

I hope Beth gets through these issues soon and you two can have many good times ahead. I'm glad to hear you are doing well... as can be expected

Re: Classic Heartbeat?

The day started out fairly smooth. However got more stressful as the day has gone by. Beth has been in and out of Afib at least 6 times and is in Afib as I write this report. It is proving to be difficult to weigh out what medications Beth needs and not give her too much of something that causes major problems somewhere else. Yesterday was a rather quiet day, but Beth had tremors and overall even though she was awake wasn't very aware of her surroundings. So a change in medications was made and today she didn't tremor so much, but she became extremely anxious and out of sorts. It doesn't help that she can not communicate effectively and breaks my heart to see her struggle with comunication. We have tried magnetic letters, writing, pictures, and asking questions you can answer by nodding her head. It doesn't help that they continually change her vent settings causing her stress coping with her breathing. I understand why, but that doesn't make it any easier.

Re: Classic Heartbeat?

I was just given the news that Beth may not ever leave the hospital. I am so sick right now. The doctors haven't given up on her but they said they are close to all they can do for her. I pray for a miracle.

Wes, I just sent a strong prayer for Beth and will keep it up until I hear better news. This must feel like hell on earth for you. Sending prayers for you as well. You've been given such a hard row to hoe

Re: Classic Heartbeat?

Oh man I just realized this is W. Hepp on face book! I have been reading his updates on his wife (BETH) and just now put it together. My prayers go out to him and his family. 18hrs ago he posted this.
