Guest knightfan2691 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Okay heres the good news post that everybody (including his family ) has been waiting for. Rob is off the ventilator, awake and talking   Hes still far from okay but this is a major step.   Yes, it certainly is a MAJOR step. So glad Rob is doing better. Rob is now the 9th person I know that currently has & is being treated for ... or is hospitalized for ... pneumonia. This is getting kind of scary......   Thoughts/prayers continuing, Rob.....    Cort | 38.m.IL | pigValve + paceMaker + cowValve | '79 MC + 1979 Caprice Classic CHD.MC.CC + RoadTrips.hobbies.RadioShows.us66 = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort "I never meant to leave you alone" __ Michael Martin Murphy __ 'Don't Count The Rainy Days' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake350 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Just joining in that collective sigh of relief upon reading the latest-that collective sigh of relief that stretched across most of the USA and Canada...ever realize that there are some people you deal with almost every day and they make nary an impression,while others you hang with a handful of times, but don't forget...well Rob is firmly in the 2nd group-I am so glad he is making progress and am looking forward to hearing from him again around here-and when he feels up to it,we must insist he doesn't go and scare us like this again!!

Dan Dugan Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 Saw Pat today at the funeral of one of our aunts today. She told me Rob had a "good night" last night according to the ICU nurses. She said she didnt know exactly what that meant but that it was good news ......so I figured Ill pass that along. Â I do know one thing .....it sure does seem "dangerous" to either be a Dugan or married to a Dugan lately. Â Â Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I just had a shiver go up my spine when I read funeral... Â Sorry about the passing of your aunt, but geez I thought for a second... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughn Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 A good night is good news!! Â Dan, Sorry to hear about your aunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Dugan Posted August 5, 2012 Author Share Posted August 5, 2012 Jared thats why I made sure I mentioned my aunt. Vaughn thank you . My aunt Leona was a wonderful person and will be missed by all in the family. Â Spoke to Pat again today and the news this time is a little less upbeat, some good some bad. Â Rob is no longer considered to be in critical condition, but he has suffered a few setbacks. He is in an isolation room now because he has picked up a nasty virus. Also this all started out with kidney stones, and he still has them. One of his kidneys has shut down, and since they dont know if its damaged or just blocked by the stones Rob has to temporarily go on dialysis to give the kidney a chance to get better. So some good news some bad news but Rob is still with us and evryday hes getting a little stronger. Â Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dans '70 Z20 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I thought they had the ability to break up stones using a laser nowadays. I am sure they are doing all they can but I would think a blockage would be rare now since they are able to break it up. Â Happy to hear the somewhat good news and lets pray the minor setbacks are resolved quickly. We're with you Robbo! Â Lets keep the GOOD news coming.
