We are back in the hospital. Had a follow up this afternoon with the surgeon and ROger's labs came back with high WBC, high potassium, high creatinine He also has spiked a few fevers (101) so all things considered- they want him to have some fluids tonight and get a ct tomorrow. Perhaps an abcess somewhere which can be drained. We will see. Labs at hospital show potassium and creatinine at normal levels- this after resident tells us he is in 'slight renal failure'. So, at least that turned out to be nothing to worry about.
Bummer to be back here. But, better safe than sorry. More to come tomorrow.
Be well, friends-
Kim

    Hope all is well
    I'm sending my best to you guys. Tell Roger I'm sending my best to him too. I hate these set backs but I'm sure he'll be okay.

    Prayers out for you and your family. Tell Roger I am rooting for him and that he is out and back in no time.

    Roger was very supportive and hopeful to me when I had little hope. He reminded me of my own words and this is when he just joined the board and I responded to his post! I will never forget that.

    this is just a small set back; keep on top of those docs and don't let them overlook anything!

    I am so sorry Roger had to go back to the hospital but if they can get any possible serious complication under control then unfortunately, that is the best place to be. He had a huge surgery and so far has done well so hopefully this bump in the road is just that, a litle bump.

    Keep us up to date when you can as to how he is doing.

    Tell Roger we think of him often and look forward to a new picture of him swinging that chain saw.

    The best to your entire family - Tina

    Hoping things will improve swiftly.Tell Roger I had to stop my car to keep from running over a crow yesterday. Darn bird was eating something in the road and didn't want to move. Anyway, of course I thought of our friend Crow.

    Sending healing thoughts his way and sparks galore!

    Poor Roger!
    It is definitely to be better safe then sorry. I'd be admitting myself as well if things were offset. Hopefully, things will get back to normal to soon. Big cyber hugs to you and your family, and hope Roger has a quick recovery!

    Hugsss!

    hang in there
    I'm sorry that he is back in jail but it sounds like it won't be for long. He's strong so he can fight this and get back to living. God bless you
