hospital agggain!

what? no? not again. Poor hubby. Brandon started feeling so tired and weird a few weeks ago. I really thought nothing of it because he hadn't been sleeping very good because of his back problems. So a few day went by and his throat started really hurting.. he ended up getting white blister things is the back and it got worse and worse. So he stayed home from work a few days after that... and woke up in the middle of the night almost passing out and getting cold sweats really bad. So that morning he could barely open his eyes.. i didn't know what was going on.. could someone really get the swine flu twice?? no no. (he had swine flu and phnemonia about 2 months back). So i take him into emergency at the hospital.


Mono: sucks = so sad. And it also comes with allot of symptoms. Brandon's spleen was twice the size it should be .. and he got hepatitis's in his liver which caused him to get jaundice. . Also they took a heart scan and it came back abnormal. So he had to have a Eco aka heart ultra sound. So everything thank goodness was alright with his heart. (he has had high blood pressure for 4 yrs) So after 2 days in the hospital and long long nights of brandon not be able to sleep or swallow without being in so much pain. .. we find out his spleen is attacking his white blood cells which is causing a low hemagloben level.. so he had to stay there. Then the next day his liver was getting even bigger and nothing had gotten better at all.. we were there another day. How can this get any worse. Poor brandon.. all drugged up on morpheen and other things.. i don't know the names lol.. but it was so hard seeing him go through it all. And to add to it .. we had barely seen gavin cuz he couldn't be around brandon too much.

So on day 5 we got to go home.. His liver went down and he was feeling a little better. He just has to get blood work done to keep an eye on everything and no physical work for 4 weeks. OH the stress of having loved ones get sick. I do not like it at all. Love you babe.
