One of Our Own Needs a Hand
Re: One of Our Own Needs a Hand
I'll second that. Best of luck to you today Terry, we all hope everything works out just perfect.

Physically, she's ok, mentally, no. Currently suffering a severe manic episode, and is refusing to medicate. Thinks I'm trying to kill her.Son of a gun-ner wrote:Oh wow.

Just temporarily for dad and my son, but mom died and wife almost died and is in the hospital. Stay strong.
Mr Maccrage, I am so sorry for your losses. I do hope your wife is doing well. And you pull through this terrible time.
Mick.

Re: One of Our Own Needs a Hand
Hi are they by any chance giving her morphine or one of the derivatives? Reason for asking is that my wife was given morphine once whilst being treated for acute pancreatitis and it gave her very bad side effects including halucinations, delusions and paranoia, these included being attacked by bees, snakes, and other nasties. This was only solved by coming off morphine completely.
Hope everyone recovers and your situation improves.

It's bi-polar, complicated by pregnancy and brain damage due to encephalitis last November.AlwynTurner wrote:Hi are they by any chance giving her morphine or one of the derivatives?

Re: One of Our Own Needs a Hand
Wow Maccrage, that's a hard combination to cope with. My eldest daughter contracted encephalitis on holiday in Egypt and was very ill, and suffered a number of serious deficits from it. Recovery took over 5 years and she still has occasional problems as a result. The worst was short term memory problems which eventually were resolved but its a hard and traumatic time for all concerned. She did recover, got a first at university, and is now a manager of a care home for learning difficulties adults so recovery is possible but requires much patience and understanding. Hang in there and best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Thanks. It got bad today. They now think schizophrenia.
Re: One of Our Own Needs a Hand
I've been in touch with Terry and the surgery went well. It had developed to Stage 2 because of the size but was all contained within the kidney and when they removed the kidney that got all of the cancer. He's still in the hospital and still in a considerable amount of pain, but he's on the downhill slope now and they say he'll be back to work in June.
On a personal note, I just want you guys to know that I think it's really, really great the way you all came together to support Terry in this ordeal, and the contributions you guys made will help him and his family beyond belief. So thanks again to everyone that posted here or contributed some funding, you guys really are the best.

He felt well enough to make a trip to the Hobby Shop to get his little truck running again, so I would say that things are looking up.
