* is in critical condition...... he went to a scheduled surgery for his
colon two Wednesday ago. It got infected---he complained to doctors at
Camp Pendleton but they said nothing was wrong. Again, he went back
and by that time the infection has spread (sepsis) that they had to open him
up again. By late last week, the Camp Pendleton doctors finally admitted
that they cannot handle his situation so he was moved to Balboa Hospital
(* also was going to ask to have him moved by that time). When they
moved him with the ambulance, his body could not take the move, had a
cardiac arrest on Thursday night. They revived him/opened him up. On
Saturday, after they considered him stable, the surgeon at Balboa cleaned
up the infection and closed him up. He has been and continue to be in
critical condition. * and I visited him and * on Friday afternoon (after my
doctor's appointment). We could not go inside totally in his room but he
is with tubes, etc.
the names have been erased cause this is regarding a relative of mine. I support the damn military but i dont trust any of their doctors. I dont even let them do my annual, id rather be referred out to the civilian doctors, even if i had to pay a co-pay. This thing is just so fucking upsetting :\
