back in the ICU

Hi folks,

Dennis had an episode this morning after having a great visit with his boss. He started to cheyne-stoke breath and became unresponsive. His oxygen level dropped to 76 and the medical staff went into overdrive to help him without using any heroic measures. He was transfered to ICU again for further monitoring. He's now sitting up in bed, chatting and laughing with the nurses. It appears that he is having another GI bleed. Further investigation will occur over the next couple of days.

Dennis, this sounds cool: "sitting up in bed, chatting and laughing with the nurses"!! Never a dull moment for you I'd say!! You are a star performer and an inspiration of courage! The battles come and go but you continue to be victorious!! May the Lord continue to bless you with all good things!!! Jeff N
