The last 24 or so hours have been pretty eventful. Over the course of Sunday, we decided that things weren't improving, and we set 7:00 as our time to make a go our no go decision. This allowed me to finish off the services for the day, but also have us a deadline to make a choice. With no improvement, we left for Rochester around 8:30 last night.
We arrived at Strong's a little after 11 and after some tests and a lot of questions, Timmy was admitted back to the PCCC and welcomed by some friends from 2 years ago. Several remember Timmy well, and remember the soaps and cinnamon rolls we shared with them.
They have taken more blood work and done X-rays and are fairly certain that his heart failure isn't the problem and neither is pneumonia. So far, slight dehydration and horrible oxygen levels are what they know. More tests are being run, but primary work is on hydration and working on a few blood levels that were slightly off. He is on high flow oxygen and plenty of wires and tubes, so he is also on vallium to help with his being agitated. Maybe that is all they will find and Timmy just needs his meds adjusted, or maybe they will find something more. We have not been given an expectation as far as time goes, but our current guess is 1-2 weeks. Not really a fun guessing game, but we'll see how it all plays out.
We appreciate so much all of the prayers we have been assured of and know are going up for Timmy. He has a great team here and many people that care for his needs and look out for mom and dad as well. Another support team is helping on the home front. We are truly blessed.
