    Many of you know my husband was taken to the hospital by fire department aid car. He was admitted into critical care. Turns out he had been bleeding from the esophagus and that led to the vomiting blood at home. After some repair during an endoscopy the bleeding has stopped. There are some other issues but after 4 days in the hospital he is home and slowly recovering from some of the side issues (some can't be cured but can be managed). After the week-end he'll see his regular GI doc and get a course of treatment for all his health problems.

    Thank you for your prayers and concern. God was with us every step of the way and we saw His hand in all the circumstances. I am thankful that I live in an area that has AWESOME EMTs and WONDERFUL doctors and nurses.

    How scary that must have been. I am glad he is back home with you now and I hope further treatment helps even more.

    sorry that happened but so glad to hear. My dad suffered 14 years from a duodenum ulcer, which led to some bleeding but never something as strong as your husband... I'm glad medical help was at hand and that you have him with you ad I know God will be with you ....we ll keep you in our prayers always . I wish I was nearer or able to do some more, if anythi9ng at all, just give us a shout.
    Huge huge huggzz

    So glad to hear he is home and doing better. Sounds like you still have a bit of a long road ahead of you with this. Hope all goes well for you both. It's pretty scary when our husbands have such bad health issues, isn't it?

    Glad to hear he is ok, Diane - but that must have given you quite a scare. Look after yourself, too!
