Wow, I had missed this thread. I was reading along and so happy for Sky then I see is fell ill. My thoughts and prayers are with you, buddy!

Thanks grandma. SkyPilot has been added to our list.

Sky continues in ICU, Respiratory status seems to slowly progressing favorably, but the Hi-flow nasal cannula today was not strong enuff to get 0 2 deep enuff,so back to the Bipap. CPM for knee continues working his new joint... Lab & more test in the morning... His wife commented is most appreciative of tsptalk prayers.

All my best wishes for SkyPilot’s recovery.

I cannot help being concerned about a trend I see over and over.

Make sure I have this straight. SkyPilot went in to the hospital for a knee replacement. That was successful. According to the hospital.

He developed a “sudden respiratory destruct”. Was this aggravation of a known problem or a suddenly developing new problem?

I have known many people over the last few years who went in to the hospital for an operation and developed “unrelated medical conditions”. Some died. I see a trend. You may think I am paranoid.

Again, best wishes or SP.

I do pray in my own way for a speedy recovery for SkyPilot. I realize now that my opinions about the trend I think I have seen did not belong in this thread. My apologies to SkyPilot, his friends, loved ones and anyone else reading this.

Skypilot got out of ICU this afternoon - apparently still has need of the Bipap, at least at night. continue the prayers for lungs clearing of any residual fluids, for muscle mass
& bone strength returning to normal, and, of course, that fancy knee joint...!

The regular room was too small for the work the therapists needed to be working with him, then someone got discharged from the Orthopedic floor today & he got moved. He walked about 80 feet, with wheeled walker, the therapist, the gait belt, and the portable O2, which is still having difficulty maintaining a > 90%. Apparently this is the first `out-in-the-hall' ambulation with the new knee. Their spirits are really good, up -

 

[grandma]

SkyPilot was discharged to home this afternoon...no O2, no CPM, ..... The doctors told them to consider this a miracle...even just going home... They are sending many grateful thank yous to all who have been and are continuing to pray for him..

Thanks grandma for the update. I guess SkyPilot has a real mission to be part of.
