To all my forum friends, I can only stay for a short time. I getting ready to go to the hospital to see Y. Michael. They wouldn't let us see him at all yesterday. They have move him to an ICU unit, and Big Michael and I will be seeing our son for the first time since the ambulance took him yesterday.,He is on a ventilator and still delirious. The Dr.s so far think it is his liver. That's all I know at this time.
I,don't care who or what you believe in, but please ask that my son be granted some grace.
 
Sorry to hear about this...stay strong.

They wouldn't let us see him at all yesterday.


Im confused,can they really do that?
 
Yes DJ; in Intensive care they are often working so hard they don't like anybody around.

Thank you one and all for the good thoughts and prayers. Please keep them up. Young Michael is in the liver transplant ICU ward, and Big Michael and I got to see our son for 30 minutes today. The Dr.'s said a virus hit his liver, Hepatitis A. So, it wasn't drugs or alcohol. But, since he refused all medical option until he lost consciousness, and we could get an ambulance to take him, and it might have caused some brain trauma. We are so glad we didn't call the police when Y. Michael became aggressive, the Dr.'s said he would not have made it one night in jail. Now we are praying that his brain doesn't swell. The Dr.'s say that it is possible that he will come out whole. :trolls: :dunno: :sosad: :cry: :fword: :yoda: :cart:
 
Liver damage is definitely not good, but hopefully they will be able to get him a transplant right away. Thank you for keeping us updated on his condition, and we will be keeping you , your son, and family in our thoughts and prayers as well.
It sounds like the liver virus must have really hit fast to do that much damage almost overnight.

My husband has advanced cirrhosis of the liver, and he became very sick late last summer, wasn't able to eat or drink much, and his whole stomach, legs and feet were swollen up like a balloon when he finally agreed to go and see the VA doctor.
They said his liver will not heal, but with a better diet, and medications, he is doing a lot better, and the swelling is mostly gone now.
Hopefully, your son will soon get a transplant, and be better, too.
HUGS ! !

Hi HFL, Michael might not need a transplant with all the meds they have him on. I know they are trying to give us something to hold onto. BUT, I'll take any and all hope they can give us. Thank you again. I appreciate all the good vibes, prays, and good wishes anyone wants to send our way. :cart:
 
Consider them sent Ina, heaps of them, the very best of all the good wishes we can gather.

Hello Friends, We are in the ICU with Young Michael. The Dr.'s called us in early this morning to come in. Our son is dieing. His brain swoll last night, and he shows no mental functions, and the Dr.s said with his liver failure, they see no chance of survival. They said to call in all family that wanted to say goodbye.
Many mind feel as if it is frozen.
 
Ina, my heart is breaking for you right now. Nothing can be worse than losing your son. As a mother, I can only imagine your grief, and wish that I could be there to help comfort you.
My heart and my prayers are with you, as I am sure are each and every one of us here on the forum.
We are all sisters and brothers in heart and spirit, if not in actual life.
<<<HUG >>>
