As you may know, LD had 'emergency' Triple A surgery
June, 2011, (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm).
In his case, because the aorta had actually dissected,
he beat the 3% survival rate, with the Lords help.
A complication of his surgery is the later development of hernias, as they opened him up from his breast plate to the groin.
As a result, he has developed 5 hernias
with one being extremely painful.
He is under pain management and doing much better,
although he has problems driving more than 5 miles or so.
His condition is not life-threatening and the pain management specialist and hernia specialist are currently formulating a plan.
We are now parked at the Lakeview RV Resort
just 5 miles from the Houston Medical Center.
In fact, they offer shuttle service to and from the med center. Many of the people in this resort are here for medical reasons.
Thank you to Bill and Jay for "hooking up the rig" and Bill G. for driving us in the motor home to Houston.
And, thanks to all who helped in
closing down the pad for the summer.
LD is more bored than anything.
Although, he is fishing in the well-stocked lake here at Lakeview. The waiting for further test results and the doctors' plans is frustrating, as we all know.
LD's email address is wrightldl@aol.com
and our phone number is 281-535-2441.
It is fine to email or call and it helps in breaking the boredom.
I am doing great (since he if feeling a little better) and 'Doc' plans are finally coming together, plus there is shopping and Starbucks close by in every direction -- not to mention, the grandkids are just minutes away.
Thank you all for the prayers and concerns for both of us.
Donna (& LD)
