Pops in Garland

[Eastexasrick]

Joe is doing much better. He wants to thank everyone here who put in a good word for him. He may go home later today, but the MD has not cleared him at this time. His oxygen uptake is the problem. He said years of smoking is the cause. Right now, there is no pneumonia or cancer, just damage. His wife is doing well, left arm in a cast, but she can drive, so he does not require any help, right now.

OK, just checking. I'm thinking he doesn't have his phone handy - I've gotten no replies today.

Last I heard from him was 8:30 this morning. Phone batt probably dead.

Joe is in the intensive care unit. He is having trouble breathing. He said the tests are all good but he sounded bad. Not much info as he got winded and had to let the call drop. Please keep him in your thoughts and prays. I will reach out in the morning and update.

Sorry to hear this about pops. Definitely praying for him

This is good news

I just heard from him. He went and got himself two different strains of viral pneumonia. They've knocked one down, working on the other, and he's still in the hospital.

 

[Hoji]

Get well soon Joe.

 

[Glenn B]

C'mon, Pops - you ain't done yet!!!

Joe,

Texas Redneck said it best and I echo the same thoughts along with wishes for you to get well sooner than later and for it to be a full recovery.

All the best,
Glenn B

It takes a range-toughened Texan--creased by sun and wind and hardened by the land and the work--to get two different strains of viral pneumonia.

Ain't nothin' gonna keep you down.

Prayers for popsgarland

I just talked with Joe, he's in good spirits all things considered, and pissed that he's sick lol. Still in the hospital, close to leaving, and things are being figured out for when he's released, to provide O2 at home. He sounded better than last time.
