Default Update on mike

Mike was doing well and was looking forward to coming home today. Easter) The Plan was to have him come home today, then go back Tuesday or Wednesday of next week to have the drain put in. Well, about 3:45 am this morning I got a call from the hospital Doctor. She informed me that Mike woke up around 12ish with pain in his chest and legs. They were doing tests on him to rule out heart problems. They did say that he had a blood clot that came from his leg and went to his heart. He was at that time resting well. The pain had stopped and they were still doing more tests. I was sick with fear. They did not know if there were any more waiting. They put him on blood thinners and morphine. I was so upset I was awake the rest of the night. I am angry about the whole thing, because In the beginning, last Thursday I told every Doctor that Mike was at risk of getting blood clots. I told every Nurse, tech,about this . About 27 years ago I almost lost him due to Phlebitis. He was in the hospital for surgery and he got Phlebitis and spent an extra 31 days in the hospital. So I make a point of telling them if he is admitted to the hospital. I bet, I told every doctor, tech and nurse at least 2 times if not 3 times. They took no precautions at all. I was so upset this morning mostly because Mike was not doing well and also because with me telling them every day they did nothing. I said to the Doctor ,I told you at least twice and every one working with Mike and he should not be going though this right now.She said she saw the notes that I said something and she did remember but she was so sorry it was not done. I went to see him twice today and he was very sleepy and concerned. Please, keep him in your prayers. he and I really appreciate it.Thank you all so much. And Happy Easter
