Patrick - 1. Infection - 0.

Patrick is out of the hospital!

He beat the infection quickly and left with instructions from the medical team to do better at protecting himself from germs. Lesson learned? It would be a better lesson if he could pinpoint where he picked up the bacteria.

We are just happy he completely exceeded their expectations, and that his healthy body aided him in this recovery!

Update On Patrick

The hospital found two infections in his blood and are treating both with the same antibiotic. We have been told had this not been found when it was, he likely wouldn't have made it.

Okay, Patrick. That's enough close calls. Your wife needs a break 😆

I'm so glad he is on medications, and that they have locked him into the hospital for about a week. He would do anything to get out of there but it's the best place for him.

I'm also going to ask for prayer for my sister-in-laws's health. She had a heart scare this morning and is in the hospital. She worked tirelessly over the last few weeks organizing her brainchild, the Mexican food fundraiser. Many around her feel she worked too hard and is now feeling the effects.

But I would like to also point out that she is Big Heart 2.0 - few people are as loving and devoted to family as she. What an amazing woman. Please keep Nan in your prayers 💕

Being Admitted W/ Blood Infection

Patrick called me this morning to say lab results came back from yesterday, and he has an infection in his blood. He is being admitted to UW Medical. Please pray 💕 All I know is that a blood infection can be really dangerous for a heart transplant recipient.
