After two days in rehab Carol experienced difficulty breathing and was returned to the hospital where another chest tube was placed. It appears to be helping and her breathing seems to be much improved. We have no idea when she will return to rehab.
My life has been a roller coaster. From visiting all day long to not being able to visit to visiting all day long. I have done very little else other than routine housekeeping and cleaning up after a couple of mice. Well there were at least two, both are gone. Dan and I will reset the traps and see how many more we can catch. I haven’t seen any recent sign if that means anything.
We talked with Shelle Knutson today, her husband, Ron took a bad spill on a his motorcycle and about the same time Carol fell and has many of the same injuries as Carol . They are members of Jojoba Hills. She cannot visit at all and 2 is hours away from his hospital.
The above was written on Saturday, it is now Friday, things change. I went home last night expecting to hear about transfer back to rehab today or tomorrow. Instead there has been a set back and Carol is back in ICU under going an endoscopy. That is all I know as I write this.
I will post again when I have something to post.
Sending best wishes and love…
Saying misheberach and thinking of you both—
Wishing both of you patience to bear what must feel like a setback. Many misheberachs will be offered in the next days.
Thoughts and prayers coming with a big hug

You are both in our prayers, it must be very difficult to see her go two steps forward and three steps back. Hugs!
Aging sucks. Sending much love & trying to stay healthy. You have many hugs from us.
Do you know chipmunks, when resettled return to home? Unless far away. Like 5 miles. We did the experiment. Wonder if mice do too. Hope not.

Oh, man…so sorry to hear this, Paul. I have been praying hard twice a day, will redouble my efforts (and for you, too…). Love to you both from both of us.
PAUL &CAROL: this rollercoaster the two of you are riding must be incredibly draining. You are strong and will overcome this too. Nancy and I lift you both up in our prayers and love.
My prayers for Carol are intensified along with those for you. May the prayer from everyone combine too bring healing for Carol and peace for you. Love and hugs.
Carol is in my thoughts every day. I know she is one feisty lady and will fight through this. She always made me smile, and I look forward to seeing her at the mic again someday.
Sending you love and light. Give Carol a kiss for us, and take one for yourself as well, Paul.

So disappointed that Carol is going through so much. As you said, this experience sounds like a roller coaster going backwards, forward & then upside down. Good health to both of you.
