I guess his heart is acting up. He is in V tac. Dr. wanted a dnr

What did you tell them?

 

[Granny Hatchet]

What did you tell them?

I agreed with him as far as life support is concerned. I guess the COVID did its damage to his lungs also restarting his heart at the cost of broken ribs just seemed to be too much He said life support is great for younger people that doesn't have the problems Tom does. He said he would do everything else possible to save his life. They started different meds for his heart today. He said Tom is very sick though and he isn't sure how successful they will be.

We have been married 30 years and I feel very blessed to have him in my life and my childrens lives as well. He is a good husband and has done all he can to get me the things he thought I wanted. He is tired. I can see that.

V tach:

Ventricular tachycardia begins in the lower chambers (ventricles) and is quite fast. When it lasts only a few seconds, ventricular tachycardia may cause no problems. But when sustained, ventricular tachycardia can lower the blood pressure, resulting in syncope (fainting) or lightheadedness.

This might be why he's sleeping a lot? How did he do today, Granny?

Treatment options include medication to slow the heart rate, surgery, and an implantable device.

I imagine they would not do options 2 or 3.

If you can say these things about him, you have indeed been blessed, Granny.
