frank update, July 11, 2010

hi jorge,

we got your phone message. it means a lot to us.

frank was discharged from the icu at alta bates on monday early evening and returned to alta bates' e.r on tuesday early evening on the advice of his doctors. the trach he had in was not working and frank was basically breathing around it and thru his mouth and not getting much oxygen. he was immediately admitted back to the icu and they replaced the trach with a larger one that works.

we returned home again thursday late afternoon and everything has been going smoothly since. although frank is doing well, we want to give him a little time before scheduling the acupuncture treatment. we should know more after meeting with his nurse, ot, pt, etc. this coming week.

keep sending frank those good feelings to get him strong again!

with love,
frank linda mikee
