Well, if you did not listen to the audio post...Jay is now in ICU.....this was not expected and as soon as Tiffany and I got to Jay's room this morning he was as red as a lobster, and rithing in pain. It was not nice to see him like that and by the look on Sheila's face she was not being to totally handle him being in so much pain either.... Well, then Jay told Sheila he wanted to use the bathroom to pee, and Jay had gone down hill over night and he could not hold himself up enough to even walk to the bathroom....so Sheila was going to help him sit up in his bed and pee into a urinal...and then he just collapsed in her arms and Sheila could not tell if he was breathing. Tiffany and I were leaving his room to give them both privacy, and as I was closing the door to his room I heard Sheila yelling out, "call the nurse" I told an orderly to get a nurse and as soon as I could run back into Jay's room he was laying on his bed and it looked like he was having a seizure (his eyes were in the back of his head and he was totally red....but no movement) before I could get beside his bed the nurses ran in (all of them) and I left his room...and then Sheila kind of walked out into the hall with me and I hugged her....they then proceeded to call a "code blue" where they say the code blue and the room number over the entire hospital and every medical Dr. on the floor or area immediately runs to that room to help out. They immediately put a breathing tube in him and tried to stabilize him. they had to wait for several mins before a room in ICU became available...and then moved him there. We then helped Sheila pack up him room and put what we could into her car and then we went to eat lunch...because they will not let you see any ICU patient unless it is during visiting hrs.... (1:30-2:30 pm, 5:00-6:00 pm, and 9:00-10:00 pm) so we got back to the ICU waiting room at 2:30 pm and they would not let anyone in because they still had not stabilized him. They eventually got him in stable critical condition and let Sheila go back and then we went back @ 5:00 and he was hooked up to all kinds of stuff and the breathing tube(....he hates that) he was a little responsive...but not much. and then when we went in @ 9:00 pm he was bright red in his face and his hands were burning up (when they were cold earlier) and his blood pressure was WAY down.....then the Nurse came in and gave him Sodium Bicarbonate (sp?) and it was amazing!!!! His color went back to normal, his hands were cold again, and his breathing went back to s more healthy rate! It was amazing....but no one knows what exactly is going on and what it causing anything....because there are so many things going on that they don't know which on is doing it.....the one thing we do know is his white blood cell count was 2!!!! So it is almost positive that it was not the cancer, but they do know that his blood pressure is way out of wack.
Tiffany and Sheila and I are back here @ their house because they will not even let us see him in ICU until 1:30 pm...so hopefully it will be good for Sheila to be back home and attempt to get some fake rest in her own bed. She kept on saying that what happened today was the scariest thing that Jay has ever done and it really got to all of us! So now more than ever and I do mean it very much so.....Jay needs your prayers. The Dr. actually told me that Jay's body has got to heal and it really is in God's hands now for that to happen......so as I type this with tears running down my face......please pray for Jay..Thank you and love you all!
