Pneumonia is back

[leanneg]

Hi all,well as i suspected the pneumonia that dad suffered in december is back,bein treated at home with iv antibiotics at the moment. Trying our best 2 keep him out of hospital. Bringing up blood this time (lining of the lung apparently). Another roller coaster week ahead it seems.x

I am sorry to hear this. Unfortunately this is how many pass away. All I can say is that the only way to prevent this is to try to thicken drinks more and not give them any thin liquids or foods of a thin consistancy.

Hello,yeah thats what worries me,dad been peg fed for 3 years,the last episode was because of a sickness bug and its left a weakness now. Its like an emotional roller coaster isnt it. Have prepared myself for the worst a few times the last few months. I dont think i can cope with the inevitable if im honest.

we are all here for you and wishing you strength. It's so hard. I want to get inside mum's head to understand what she is thinking but am also afraid of what I would find out. It must be untold misery for her but she still tries to get better and never gives up. Bless them all.xx

Keeping you and your Dad in my thoughts and prayers.
