#423Hey guys! It is hard to believe that we have been here at UMC for one week. Bigday is still heavily sedated (induced coma) and each time they try and wake up/ take him out things spin out of control. I am hoping that today when we do the sedation vacation we have more of a positive outcome and that he becomes more awake with stable stats. Keep those positive notes and prayers going! I greatly appreciate everything you all have done!

#429Shit like this really hits home
I'm really hard on my body, between alcohol, stimulants and whatever somebody has on them for a night out....this really makes me sad because I am sure Bigday takes much better care of himself than I do
Having 2 young kids of my own, seeing something like this makes me realize that I really need to reevaluate my horrible lifestyle choices. Just not sure I'm strong enough to do so.
I often shy away from threads like these...not sure how to respond, or contribute. I'm a pretty emotional guy, and anyone who know me knows that I wear my heart on my sleeve. Loyalty and honesty is all I have, and I take pride in knowing that i can look anyone in the eye....and I just want to tell you guys that reading this thread has made me shed some tears.
Seeing strangers and acquaintances going through such great lengths to make a difference for someone going through an ordeal like this has given me optimism that I haven't had in many years. The world has not seemed very positive for a long time.
I just wanted to say thank you to everyone here. You have not only been doing great things for Bigday, you've also given me an opportunity to be optimistic about my future and the future of my family.
Either way I know the copious amounts of bourbon I smash isn't probably the best choices for my health and being around in the future.
I think we will all learn something about ourselves when this is all said and done.

#447Update from Mindy on caringbridge;
Labor Day
Journal entry by Mindy McBride — 30 minutes ago
Today we had hopes for an MRI but each time they laid Andy flat he would lose his oxygen levels. The Infectious Disease doctor thinks that it will just take time to heal. The ID team also does not recommend continuing with the IVIG because of his kidney function. We are hoping to see his levels come down. He was 3.8 down to a 3.4 and normal high range is 1.5. His white blood cell count was 22, to 14, to 8 today.
We are looking at running a marathon not a sprint and am just trying to keep a good pace. We hope you all enjoyed your Labor Day weekend. To all of my educator colleagues and friends, may you sleep well and greet those students with an amazing smile. I am sad to miss the first day of school in my new role as Principal at Parkway Montessori and Community Middle School AND I can't wait to meet all the new students I will support. I did send a welcoming video to greet the students with.Comment -

#451The crazy thing is, I don't think they really still know what the penetrate is going on. They are treating it as that syndrome (sorry it's 2 am I forgot the name), but aren't sure that's actually it?
Poor guy. He will prevail and be the strongest man alive, noneless SBR. It'll be the biggest day of all when he's back and better than ever.

#455First Day of School
Journal entry by Mindy McBride — 2 hours ago
This morning started out a little challenging due to being so far away from home. I watched Maisie load the bus from our door bell camera and was sent photos from Grammy Lynn. I also spoke with Elsa, which wanted to Facetime and I keep dodging that... she wants to see dad. I just don't know how many excuses I can make before she catches on. T
Andy's stats were really good last night. His heart rate is dropping a little which is good the last few days he was in the 100 range and now he is in the 80-90 range. They have been able to keep his blood pressure stable and oxygen stable with medicine therapy. This morning he even got a little bed bath (laid flat and rolled on side and stats stayed stable!). Yesterday we enjoyed the company of our neighbor and friend. Today two of his college buddies will be up to visit!
As the nurse and respiratory therapist was here to clean his mouth he opened his eyes. I walked over and told him all about the girls first day of school and he tracked me with his eyes, then he raised his eyebrows as I told him stories. Absolutely made my day!!!Comment
