    Greg has been in the hospital for the last week or 10 days. He's been having some issues with his stomach tube and some fluid on one of his lungs. We all miss him.

    Thank You Jane>I must have missed the part that he's in the hospital.I knew he had issues with the tube and fluid in his lungs.I sure hope he's going to be alright.He's such a nice man.

    PaulineJ, I don't. We communicate via email through WhatNext. I hesitate to worry him with an email to answer. Greg and Donna weren't' expecting for him to be admitted to the hospital when they went up last Tuesday for his regular infusion. They may not even have a phone charger.

    Hey all ,just seen this.Haven't checked in but Greg told me to post all that has been going on the last two or three days.He is feeling better :) but has a couple more issues going on since I last posted.His right arm from his elbow to his hand started swelling so they done an ultra sound.He has a blood clot in his neck and some in his lungs.They are giving him medicine to desolve them.And just for more fun he has pneumonia but that is clearing up!He always has to make things more exciting then I like..He has felt better the last couple of days.Not sure how this man keeps going like he does!He truly is Superman!!!!! He and I thank you for your concern! But he has finally gotten a new feeding tube today.We're on day 10 won't be going home until Monday looks like. Much love to all of you thank you!

    Donna, thanks for letting us know. I knew that he must be having some issues with him being so quiet.

    Thank you Donna. Keeping you all in my prayers. And yes, I agree that he deserves that Superman title. And you are Super Woman, your love and care is so special and helps Greg so much...please take care of yourself as well.

    So glad that things are on the upward swing!!!

    I will be keeping you both in my prayers. I know you're both extra-anxious to see home on Monday!!!!

    I agree with omaalyce - you get an award too, Donna. Nothing easy about being a caregiver.

    It seems like it's been a lot longer than what it really is. Greg and Donna are much more a part of my life than I realized.

    Hello everyone I'm Deana, Greg's sister in law and Donna's sister. Our Superman is still fighting the fight ❤ He is still at Vanderbilt Hospital. I'm here with him tonight. Our brother stayed with him last night to give Sissy a much needed break again. Our goal is to get him back home and in his recliner soon. We thank you all so much for the prayers and well wishes. Please keep them coming. Goodnight and God bless you all!

    My wish and prayer is for a soft, comfy recliner for all of you! We love Greg and admire his fight and grit and we admire all his caregivers for the heroes they are.
