April - May 2009

Tim developed an allergic reaction to the IV antibiotics he was on - Vancomycin and ______.
He broke out all over in a red rash - and it is nicknamed "red man". He broke out about April 10, 2009. It is now the middle of May - and he is still trying to "kick" the rash. He is always cold - and wears several layers of clothes to stay warm. I tease him that the rash is a Heat Rash.......
We returned to cleveland for a check-up on April 21. All was going fine other than his rash. He had a pacemaker check - good; and an Echo done - fine!
We return to Cleveland on May 18/19 for another check up and to have the clot filter removed.
He has lost lots of weight and stays rather thin. I hope to get him eating more....
More appointments and follow-ups in June.......

Thank you for the update Linda. I will call Tim this week and talk to him. We are planning to be in your area for a day or two a little after Memorial Day. I will let you know exactly when once we know what our traveling schedule will be. Tell Tim we love him and our prayers are constant for him and for you and the kids.
