Thanks everyone, he came off the respirator they told me last night so that is good :) and my daughter and I will go up and see him tomorrow. Its a 2 hr drive, so going with friends thankfully. I've had a bit of seizure activity last week and kidneys playing up mildly this week - lupus sure hates stress doesnt it!!!! :rolleyes: Early to bed again for me tonight and hoping my Imuran increase does the trick.

Cant wait to see him :love:

Lily I had no idea. :hugbetter: I am so sorry you have been under such stress. I am very happy to hear your hubby is doing so well. I will be praying for you, your husband, your daughter and the rest of your family as well. Remember to take care of yourself. Stress does not do the body good.

Hi all,

Well he was due to come home today but he's had a temperature the last couple of days :wacko: they think he's caught a virus, urinalysis etc has checked out ok so he's staying put for now.

I told him be in no rush to get home its freezing and its snowing in between raining here :cold: :erm: :P Lucky he took a lot of reading material with him!

If all goes well he will be home tomorrow .............maybe! Thanks for your support :hugbetter: and all your posts!

love
Lily

[Anisah]

(((Lily)))

God willing all will go well and he'll be home soon as planned! I imagine the temp was a concern, so glad that its not an infection. :)

Maybe its good for you too to have a little extra time to rest before you have to take on caregiver duties. :love:

Please rest sweetie, and my prayers are with you and your family,
hugs,
Anisah
:flowers:

p.s. snow, whew we're nice and humid around here :coffee:

[Clare.T]

I hope he will be over this by tomorrow Lily. Not the best conditions to be recovering and housebound that's for sure. Sending you strength Lily ;) and don't forget you have the upper hand !

Love from Clare

[Lily]

Hi all,

Well his temp came down during the day completely and they pronounced him fit to come home - so we went up last evening and got him! He couldnt stand another day in there ;) and he did sleep much better at home last night. I've done all the personal secretary things :P and taxied him to the GP today as advised and he gave him the thumbs up, said he's going really well and just book rehab etc in the coming weeks !

So rather than go to bed he decided to sit at the dining table and read...........hmm.........and promptly fainted for a sec :wacko: and fell off the chair :o :angry: (that sort of thing is usually my trick - how dare he turn the tables!) Took his bp rang the gp and he ordered him to bed said he felt it was probably a sudden drop in bp and some overexertion! Phew........... :wacko:

PS the snow didnt last long and it's raining now - so I'm taking 5 on the puter and enjoying myself :P :hehe:

love
Lily

[Lily]

Ummmm PPS I passed on all your hugs from chat yesterday to him and I think the excitement must have been too much for him ;) :lol:

Hugs to you all,

love
Lily

[angieD]

Sorry to hear of your recent worries/stresses but so glad everything is looking better now.
BIG HUGS to all of you. :hugbetter:


Love AngieD

[sunladyb]

:wave: Hi Lily,
Glad hubby is home :D and doing ok. hmmmmmm maybe hubby is best listening to you in future ;) maybe then his bp wouldn't drop so quickly. But they always think they know best :P
Take care of yourself Lily glad the snow has cleared up for you.
Love Dawn :flowers:

[raggedyann1]

Lily,

Is this a sign of the challenge you have ahead of you in the next few weeks?
Perhaps you need some duct tape to keep him in bed. :lol:

Lubs,
