Our last update about Craig was his move to the Rehab floor & continued
small improvements.
This week - further tradgedy: an embolus broke free from the legs somewhere
and lodged in the lungs. He blacked out. They had him on coumadin for some
time - but now have increased the dose. They have transferred him again to
"Telemetry" for constant monitoring.
This has all been relayed to me & I have no other details.
Is this common in the first few months of treatment?? Is it due to the
steroids or the Gamma Globulin - or simply the inactivity of paralysis?? If
the latter - I say there is not enought physical therapy going on!!!
sorrowfully,
