…that have become part of our life over recent days. Meningioma, craniotomy, pneumocephalus (air pocket on brain), deep vein thrombosis ( blood clots – both legs), pulmonary embolisms (both lungs), compacted bowel, and the latest, hydrocephalus (excess fluid on the brain).
Today, Greg is having permanent shunts put in to keep the excess fluid drained. Yesterday, a new central line was put in to begin administration of IV nutrition due to inability to eat because of bowel issue. Tuesday, a filter was inserted in his vena cava to prevent anymore blood clots that might break loose out of his legs from reaching his lungs. Thankfully, none of the ones that already had were fatal.
Words I am longing to hear: Mr. Allen, you are doing great and you can go home today.
Please Dear Father in Heaven, let it be soon.

This is disturbing news Randi. We all had hopes he would be in and out and carrying on with an active life by now. These are some serious issues but he is where he needs to be right now. I sure hope everything gets cleared up soon and you BOTH can get back home where you belong. I’m praying for him. Take care of yourself my friend.
