Guest guest Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Extra prayers will be with you and Glenn today. Priscilla A. Savary Executive Director Colorectal Cancer Network PO Box 182, Kensington MD 20895 psavary@... www.colorectal-cancer.net _________ Screening for All. Colon Cancer for None. ProjectMARCH -- rarely in life do you get a chance to make major change or save thousands of lives. March 6, 2006 you can. http://www.colorectal-cancer.net/projectmarch.htm Not real good news here... Hey all.... It's about midnite here....just returned from the hospital. After I sent the update earlier today, Glenn called and was " gushing " blood. Still having diarrhea. I told him to call an ambulance...he hemmed and hawed and " wasn't bleeding anymore " it was after 4 p.m., I was at work in Baltimore City with no car (car pool situation and not my week to drive), told him to lie down and rest and if it happens again to call 911... then I called to see if she was home early from work. She wasn't. The bleeding started again and Glenn was still scared, he called my sis' cell phone...she then called me to see what she should do.... asked her to call the ambulance and just go over to my condo and just be with Glenn til they got there. ( to the rescue again!!!) The ambulance w/n take him to St. Joe's so he's now at lin Square. I came home first to clean up the mess. I told him when I finally got there that he was just trying all the hospitals in Harford and Baltimore County and City to see which one had the best food or prettiest nurses!!! LOL He was/is on oxygen b/c of the blood loss, his blood pressure goes way down after several minutes of not being on IV fluids....right now they are calling him a " lower GI Bleed " case... he's in the Immediate Care Unit receiving a couple pints of blood right now. He's stabilized...but pretty miserable, scared and ooooh so tired of all this " stuff " ..... they have a portable potty right by his bed... ( " Immediate Care " is below " Intensive Care " , but higher than " regular care " ...) We've called his regular GI Specialist. at St. Joes, who wants him transferred to St. Joes in the morning....makes sense to me.... stay tuned.... This still could be from the anti-biotics...but there are tons of other possibiities too...my worst fear is something gone wrong in the colon (cancer) or more bleeding in the esophogeal veins....and I guess it could be something to do with the pump, as well.....they won't really know until they scope him...which GI Dr. will do at St. Joes sometime tomorrow.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Dear Donelle, Catching up on emails and see all the problems Glenn had yesterday. Did he get transferred to the other hospital?? How did he make the night? I am praying for both of you. Don't feel like you have to answer this. Karima Not real good news here... Hey all.... It's about midnite here....just returned from the hospital. After I sent the update earlier today, Glenn called and was " gushing " blood. Still having diarrhea. I told him to call an ambulance...he hemmed and hawed and " wasn't bleeding anymore " it was after 4 p.m., I was at work in Baltimore City with no car (car pool situation and not my week to drive), told him to lie down and rest and if it happens again to call 911... then I called to see if she was home early from work. She wasn't. The bleeding started again and Glenn was still scared, he called my sis' cell phone...she then called me to see what she should do.... asked her to call the ambulance and just go over to my condo and just be with Glenn til they got there. ( to the rescue again!!!) The ambulance w/n take him to St. Joe's so he's now at lin Square. I came home first to clean up the mess. I told him when I finally got there that he was just trying all the hospitals in Harford and Baltimore County and City to see which one had the best food or prettiest nurses!!! LOL He was/is on oxygen b/c of the blood loss, his blood pressure goes way down after several minutes of not being on IV fluids....right now they are calling him a " lower GI Bleed " case... he's in the Immediate Care Unit receiving a couple pints of blood right now. He's stabilized...but pretty miserable, scared and ooooh so tired of all this " stuff " ..... they have a portable potty right by his bed... ( " Immediate Care " is below " Intensive Care " , but higher than " regular care " ...) We've called his regular GI Specialist. at St. Joes, who wants him transferred to St. Joes in the morning....makes sense to me.... stay tuned.... This still could be from the anti-biotics...but there are tons of other possibiities too...my worst fear is something gone wrong in the colon (cancer) or more bleeding in the esophogeal veins....and I guess it could be something to do with the pump, as well.....they won't really know until they scope him...which GI Dr. will do at St. Joes sometime tomorrow.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Donnelle: I just got out of bed for the first time in 2 days and saw your email about Glenn. I am so worried about him. This is horrible. I hope he is now in the hands of his regular doctors and they can do something to stop the bleed. Please know you and Glenn are in my thoughts and prayers. Hey all.... It's about midnite here....just returned from the hospital. After I sent the update earlier today, Glenn called and was " gushing " blood. Still having diarrhea.
