Healing
Jere Wolf (Melanie Zimmer’s dad) was put
into ICU the afternoon of 20 April 2014 (Easter) with Congestive Heart Failure
and a blocked aortic valve. Mel
writes: Sunday afternoon, they released Dad out of ICU and into a tiny HOT
little room he shares with another guy at present. His cardiologist and his
partner have both been in to check on Dad and agree that for the present, Dad is
holding steady with his aortic valve still between .8 and .9 blocked off, but
they do not feel at this time he needs a valve replacement, which is good as
the only approved method would be through the unpleasant "Chest
Cracking" and at this point he is nowhere strong enough to withstand
that. They also stated that even
though they removed a full liter of fluid out of his left lung, his CHF is not
better, if anything it is getting worse.
It will take a solid 6 weeks for his pneumonia to clear. His white count is rising, but they are
keeping him on IV antibiotics.
There is still fluid building up in his lungs, but they have chosen at
this time to try to clear it via medication, but is off the Lasix and on his
normal Bumex as it has been very rough on his only kidney. Although he is down 1.6 units of blood
again, (now at 10) we were told that the kidneys trigger the production of the
red blood cells, and that with the kidney under the kind of stress it has been
over these past 11 days, that could/should account for the count going down. He is not eating enough to keep a bird
alive and to get some idea of what I mean, since he has been in the hospital, he
has maybe eaten the combined total of a Big Mac Meal and perhaps not the super
sized one. Based on this and
having no energy at all, they are administering nutrients through the central
line in his chest, (through the jugular vein) it is a thin clear fluid instead
of the thicker white stuff that goes in normally via IV in the arm. They got him up for a second attempt to
walk, but he was only able to stand up and march in place just small
steps. He wants to be able to get
out of that place. Mom is being
very strong and Cindy & I are doing our best but tonight I was a sticky
chocolate mess. I waited until I
got out of his room, but it is very hard to see my Dad in his present
condition. He is very weak. We are asking that you pray for him to
gain strength, and personally for me to be strong enough to be supportive to
Mom. Though small in stature, my
Dad has always been a strong gentle giant in my eyes. I hope to have more positive news in my next update. We do so appreciate all of the
outpouring of love and support you have all given us.
May God continue
to bless each of your lives, Molly (another name for Mel)
Please pray for
Jere and family to keep their faith strong in the Lord, as well as for guidance
for the medical team treating him.
i want to use this opportunity to thank my great doctor who really made my life a pleasurable one today. This great man Dr Saibaba who brought my husband back to me, i had 2 lovely kids for my husband, about 3 years ago i and my husband has been into one quarrel or the other until he finally left me for one lady. i felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. i tried to be strong just for the kids but i could not control the pains that torments my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows an Ad pains because i was really in love with my husband. Every day and night i think of him and always wish he would come back to me, until one day i met a good friend of mine that was also in a situation like me but her problem was her ex-boyfriend who she had an unwanted pregnancy for and he refused to take responsibility and dumped her. she told me that mine was a small case and that i shouldn't worry about it at all so i asked her what was the solution to my problems and she gave me this great man phone number and his email address. i was doubting if this man was the solution, so contacted this great man and he told me what to do and i deed them all, he told me to wait for just two day and that my husband will come crawling on his kneels just for forgiveness so i faithfully deed what this great man asked me to do and for sure after two days i heard a knock on the door, in a great surprise i saw him on his kneels and i was speechless, when he saw me, all he did was crying and asking me for forgiveness, from that day, all the pains and sorrows in my heart flew away,since then i and my husband and our lovely kids are happy.that's why i want to say a big thank you to Dr Saibaba. This great man made me to understand that theirs no problem on earth that has no solution so please if you know that you have this same problem or any problem that is similar, i will advise you to come straight to this great man. you can email him templesaibaba@yahoo.com
