On Sunday March 8, I took Kevin to Barnes Emergency because of pain and swelling in his groin. Within a few hours he was rushed to emergency surgery and had to have an incision in order to drain and debreed an infection that had progressed to gain green. After the surgery he was put into ICU, untill tonight. He is being moved to room 6576 at BJC. He is doing well and is on morpheine. The Dr. told us that he has a difficult road ahead. The treatments for his toumor will have to be suspended for a while. The treatments are what allowed the infection to progress rapidly and with few symptoms. He will be in the hospital for 5 -10 days and then will go to a skilled care facility untill the wounds heal.
I would like to thank all of you for your support. Kevin can recieve e-mailes at barnes website. I will continue to update as time allows.
Kenny
P.S. I am a terriable speller and this has no spellcheck!!
