By the time he went into the hospital, he had MRSA in his blood stream. It attacked his heart and lungs. His heart was extremely damaged by the MRSA and it formed a blood clot that went to his brain and he had a huge stroke. He never regained consciousness and they took him off life support a couple of days ago.
My husband is heartbroken and we are all shocked that this could happen out of the blue to a perfectly healthy man. They have no idea how he contracted it. It is very scarey. |
I'm so sorry to hear that. It scared me to death when I initially heard about it. I didn't know much about it, so after class I researched it. It scares me that they don't know how he contracted it. I'll have your family/friends in my thoughts and prayers. That is horrible!
