Whats it like inside the bubble...........

Alright so yesterday at the hospital the Dr on call ordered a Doppler Sonogram of Jason's leg(this checks blood flow). His leg had been swelling and brought it to the attention of the Dr and PA but it didnt get anywhere. Well yeah for the Er doc, apparently J has a blood clot that stretches from his groin to his knee. It could be further down they just dont scan the calves. So he is started on blood thinners again and Im not quite sure what the next step is. He finally got into a room and they initiated the treatments for the RSV. He says that a plasic bubble is put over him with a hole in the side so that he can get himself drinks, then there is a mask on the inside that delivers the medicine. Sounds space agey, but he if it works. No one is allowed in the room when he is getting the treatments so I dont have to feel so guilty about not being up there even though Roo and I are sick and logically I know I should not be there. The treatments will last 5 days so its looking like hopefully Monday for release but probably Tuesday. He is doing well, just bored. He is going to make sure that with the clot its okay for him to get up and walk around. Thats about all for now. Its amazing how God works, J goes in for a virus to be treated and a life threatening blood clot is found...Thank you Jesus for watching over my husband. Prayers Welcomed! Kimmy
