Hi, I am Gina, Kevin's wife. On January 30 I took Kev to the hospital because he had been having dizzy spells during the day. By the time the ambulance got him to the ER, he was in respiratory failure. He agreed to be intubated and sedated to have a chest CT scan. It was negative. the next morning, the dr. talked to him about getting a trach and vent. He agreed and so he had the surgery, as well as a peg and suprapubic catheter.

we are now at a Rehab hospital and learning to live with a vent. Hopefully, he will be getting out by the end of the month.

Prayers and good thoughts will be appreciated.

thanks,
gina

Give him a hug from me and tell him he's in our prayers. Keep the faith.
 
Sounds like it was a 1stop shop for all the things he needs. Wow, hope recovery goes good, and you are home soon.
