I’m stuck at home unfortunately with the kids and on restricted activity due to the pregnancy. I don’t drive besides. 😦 My mother in law drove him to the hospital last night and has been helping here.

They are now not sure he has blood poisoning (sepsis), but haven’t ruled it out. He definitely has pneumonia (3rd time in 2 yrs now- he’s only 26 yrs old and they are now also trying to figure out why he gets sick so often and so badly) and something else, possibly strep or bronchitis but they aren’t sure what is growing in the cultures. They have him on lots of fluids and 4 kinds of antibiotics. His heart rate is high and they are concerned about that too.

He will be there at least another night. We don’t have any time available for him to take off of work (because he does get sick so often, though not usually this badly, obviously) and he doesn’t qualify for fmla yet at this job either. He lost his last job due to being hospitalized with pneumonia (we’re in a so-called right to work state) so we are very worried about this too, as he is the sole breadwinner.

Thank you all for the prayers, please keep them coming, I put so much hope in the prayers of the Christian community.

Praying for you.
Have they looked at his spleen because I have had mine removed because of low platelets and that can result in serious illnesses…
 
Lord please help this husband and guide the doctors to treat him to bring healing.Thankyou Lord for hearing our prayers Amen

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
 
Lord please help this family. May it be your will for a full and fast recovery.

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be
done, on earth as it is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our
trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil. Amen

Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee
blessed art thou among women and
blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary mother of God pray for us
sinners now and at the hour of our death
Amen.

Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now ever shall be world without end

He is still in the hospital tonight. He isn’t getting any worse but he isn’t getting any better, either.
 
Prayers continue for your husband
God bless

Update:

He has been home and is slowly recovering. He has ongoing issues with his lungs. They now think he is constantly refluxing a small amount of acid into his lungs and reflux had caused aspiration pneumonia (this would be 3rd time in 2 yrs) and infection. So far we are having trouble getting it under control. Needless to say, he is still out of work (about 2 months now), as his job is primarily on the phones. Since he is our sole income and we just had a new baby, this is a problem and I would appreciate your continued prayers for his full recovery and return to work soon. Thank you!
 
Thanks for the updates.

PATER NOSTER,
qui es in caelis,
sanctificetur nomen tuum.
Adveniat regnum tuum.
Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie,
et dimitte nobis debita nostra
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem,
sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

Thank you again for so many prayers! Update: He returned to work this week. Already had to take a couple of days because he was coughing too much after a reflux episode. He was sent home. Got some new medicines that will hopefully help him. He has now been diagnosed with gastroparesis and sleep apnea. It never seems to end for us. My husband has lost much of his faith in God. He isn’t sure he ever had any. 😦 Please continue to keep him and all of us in your prayers.
