Update for Lee and Donna, Please open up your hearts to offer much needed prayers

I spoke with Lee earlier today.

He sounded a bit rough. Sounded better the other day.

They transported him last night to the rehab facility at the hospital.

Of course protocol dictated transportation by AMBULANCE. Ha.

That's what they do.

He had a very rough night.

He indicated that his chest congestion was breaking up and put him into coughing fits throughout the night.

Little sleep.

And, he had a sore throat from all that when we spoke.

He did say that his new digs had a large window and that Donna can come and see him... through the window. It is what is is. Gotta be thankful for that.

He let me know that he may be in rehab for anywhere from a week to ten days.

His spirits are up. His patience is waning. Wants to go home...Now.:(

Bruce,

Thanks for all the updates and being there for Lee during all of this.

While I've not jumped in up to now, I've been watching it and I've felt good knowing you're frequently communicating with him and keeping us all up to speed. The next time you talk to him, tell him I said hello and glad to hear he's recovering and Donna's getting better too.

Had a pleasant conversation with Donna yesterday afternoon.

She was in very good spirits and sounded strong.

She has actually reached a point where her needs for extra oxygen have reached 'zero'. Very good to hear that she doesn't rely on extra.

She did indicate that she feels fine, but, her legs fatigue quickly and she still needs to gain strength and stamina in her walking. She is mobile and doing well with that.

Lee had asked her to contact me.
His ability to carry on a conversation has been hampered greatly by the sore throat issue that he developed after getting into rehab. He continues to have coughing fits and this exacerbates the movement of chest congestion. A lot of discomfort and restless sleep.

His PT regimen involves seeing how far he can walk each day. The progress is there, but, slow. He is only able to walk 15-20 steps and return. Leg strength and stamina are what it is all about and they are diligently working with him on that.

Of course his first 'shower' was a finally realized blessing. As we all know exactly what a good thing that can be.

Donna and her son visit him and bring him things.

Donna will have her son bring Lee's clothes home to be laundered.

Apparently the hospital doesn't have in-house personal laundry. Ha. Who knew? I didn't and she didn't either. Rightfully so, I guess it's not on them. Of course it's great to wear your own clothes especially when the hospital gowns leave your heinie flapping in the breeze.

Any new updates or news on Lee and Donna? My prayers for a speedy and complete recovery for them both.

Have spoken to Donna.

She said that Lee will probably remain in rehab until next Wednesday.

He is getting stronger in the legs and they have him walking regularly. Making progress.

She sent me these pictures and I asked permission to post them.

She gave me permission, but, I will find out later if Lee approves. Ha. :D

Without pictures it didn't happen, right?

They both look good. Well, one looks gooder than the other. :D

Thank you for the information. Prayers sent for both and a general prayer for all who may have contracted this virus from Hell. Please excuse the language, but too many good people are suffering from this. It's too late and useless to lay the blame on anybody or any civilization on Earth; let's do what we can to help each other out of this hole. We have enough problems in this world.
God above, please guide us all to good health. For THIS I will kneel before you.
