If been trying to get a hold of my sis n law but her phone doesn't work in the hospital. I've called her sis and she hasn't heard yet. I'm beside myself with worry. I promise to let you all know when I hear something.

Thank you again for your thoughtful prayers and well wishes. Please keep thinking of my brother.

Waiting for news is always so hard, prayers and hugs dear.

I received a text message from my sis in law. She tells me that my brother will be staying in the hospital for a few days. They have scheduled a procedure tomorrow where they will be placing a camera down his throat to assess the damage done to his heart by the infection. Must be some kind of ultra sound thing. If the damage is not so severe that he'll need immediate open heart surgery, he will be placed on a six week i.v. antibiotic (will go home with the I.V.). After the six weeks they will set a date for either heart valve replacement or repair of the damaged heart tissue (if possible). I'm guessing I will know more tomorrow.

He is so scared.

Thank you everyone for all the well wishes and prayers.

Thanks for the update hon... take care of YOU and your family, we will still be here.

Don't worry too much. I know several people that have had open heart surgery, it has come a Long long way. (still scary, I know)

Bacteria can do lots more damage than we think. Even strep throat can damage your heart, so check out those sore throats people, and wash your hands.

Loads of prayers and blessings coming your way, you are in our thoughts
xox,
Leanne
