Tony crushed his vertebrae again a few days ago lifting the old wringer back onto the washing machine, 

more weeks on his back,

Oh dear... not a good start to the new year. Hope things improve soon, Yvonne.

[Richard]

When is he going to learn that's what happens when he lifts heavy stuff - and stop doing it? 

Here's hoping for a speedy recovery... and the sense to find a strapping young neighbour next time. 

[Yvonne]

Thanks & , 

his neighbour is a cop & also in the CMF, ......... but I put it back in the end 

it will take a month at least before he's getting about much.

[handy]

It may pay to invest in a weght lifters belt to hold his back in.

[Ray]

Sounds grim, sorry to hear about it, from now on things will only get better.  ( hopefully ) 

 

[Yvonne]

Thanks Handy & , 

I think things just went backwards a bit,   

Had to get the ambulance at 5am this morning, he has developed congestion on the lungs & the strain of trying to get up set off his defibrillator, it went off & gave him shocks about 15 times 

He's in the best place now though thank goodness. 

[Babs]

(((Yvonne)))  Fingers crossed for you both.

[Brains]

Huggles hun and take care yourself too please

[Yvonne]

Thanks & , 

He's doing ok at present, having x-rays today on his back now his heart is stable.

I'm taking things easy & dealing with the necessary for now, thanks again for your good wishes 

[Yvonne]

Tony is doing much better today, the xray confirmed a fracture & they have him on heavy painkillers, so he was able to get up & move around today, they're even talking about maybe sending him home tomorrow.

[Brains]

Huggles gentle to you both

That's some good news to start my day

That's better then... and tell him no more lifting!

Hope you're coping with it all, Yvonne...   

[Yvonne]

Thanks , & ,   

had a phone call to say he can come home today at 2 pm,

Thanks for your good wishes, 

[Ray]

Good news.

 

[Yvonne]

   

Good news.

 

Thanks , 

He's glad to be home,

Just sorted all his meds & off to bed now,

[Babs]

Make sure you look after yourself too!   

[Yvonne]

That didn't last long, 

His defibrillator went off this morning so he had to go back to hospital 

I'll be going to see him shortly & get a report on him.

At this rate they'll soon need to have him in to change the battery...

If he's able to talk, pass on our best wishes and here's a hug ((())) for you too, as this must all be very stressful...

[Brains]

Huggles and best wishes from me mum and Toby too xx

Thanks ,  

He is stable again now, but they say the jolt didn't register on the readout,  ..... I hope he gets a new one soon


Yes, you don't get used to seeing them get jolts from the defibrillator, even when their heart's stronger than Tony's is.

 



Update  ..... He is now home again

[Yvonne]

Well he's been back in hospital over a week now & we nearly lost him again, 

thankfully he will be getting his defibrillator come pacemaker replaced tomorrow, so all being well could be home later in the week, but probably won't be able to drive again.

Saw him tonight & he's had the new gizmo installed & his graph readout is looking stronger

If the physio thinks he's he's strong enough he'll be home on Wednesday,
