You guys are the BEST! Your caring has made me cry more than once...
For those of you not on Facebook, here's a morning update:

GOOD NEWS - G might get to go back to rehab today, maybe tomorrow.

Hospitalist believes anemia was caused by all the blood thinners he was on, which caused a bleed, and they (blood thinners) have now been stopped.

Renal issues were caused by antibiotics and dehydration and that will be addressed by fluid infusion and changing the dosing of the antibiotics, and my riding his ass for the rest of his life to DRINK MORE WATER!!!

The scope to find the bleed can wait for at least a month

..

[Bethers]

Oh, Mitch, I'm so glad to hear good news. And if it'll help, I'll visit and ride his arse to DRINK MORE WATER, too. Bet we can all do that.

Continued prayers and hugs.

[Irmi]

Mitch, that's wonderful news! I hope George continues to improve and will continue sending prayers to both of you. Please take care of yourself.

Sounds like they got things under control.....You know, when we were kids and had colds, flu, and/or pneumonia, my Mom would make us drink a quart of water every waking hour until we were better...so when you are on G's butt to drink water, have a quart jar ready and a straw....ya' never know, it just may work....keep us posted on how things are going....and of course, prayers every day......

Just received this from a friend today.

GREAT INFO...

From a Cardiac Specialist When to Drink Water.

This is interesting!

You need water to flush the toxins out of your body, but this was news to me.

Correct Time to Drink Water.

Very Important


Drinking water at certain time maximizes its effectiveness on the body:

2 glasses of water after waking up - helps activate internal organs

1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal - helps digestion

1 glass of water before taking a bath - helps lower blood pressure

1 glass of water before going to bed - avoids stroke or heart attack

Really good news Mitch! Sounds like they are getting things under control...about time wouldn't you think???
Now you can breathe a sigh of relief...and give George a big hug ((((hug)))
