OESMommy is in hospital

To all those who know Deana (OESMommy) I am writing to ask for your prayers for Deana. She was admittted to a local hospital with pnenomenia and is quite serious. That's why she has not been on recently. I am her husband (Richard) and my login doesn't seem to work. Ron/Stacy please check that my account is still active and reset my password. (Thank you). Our OES's miss her terribly - Snowy, Lily and Bear... I thought all those of you who know her would like to know. Your prayers are appreciated. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Respond to this topic here on forum.oes.org  
Oh I am so sorry to hear this! My prayers are with Deana for a speedy recovery. Please give all the sheepies hugs and kisses for us. Be strong. And please keep us posted. :ghug:

Jeeeeesh, that's terrible. You both seem to be having a very tough stretch. I hope she heals up quickly.

Send me your email addy and/or your username to Ron@oes.org and I'll help out with your registration.
Would you also please forward Deana's hospital info to me? Thanks.
I'm so sorry to hear about Deana, please let her know I'm really pulling for her and want to see her back home with you and the pups very, very soon. Send her our gentle hugs. :ghug:

Some for you too, I'm sure you're drained as well.
Oh My! OES Daddy thank you for telling us. Our prayers and positive thoughts are going out to Deana ( OESMOMMY).. Wishing you a full quick recovery!

Thank you for your offerings and well wishes... We live in Western NY - Between Rochester and Buffalo, but thank you for the offer. Thank you again... God Bless!

oh my! 'm really sorry to read this; you have all our prayers and sheepie kisses towards a quick and full recovery!!!
Well, yes, a little far for me - about 12 hours. BUT, if you need help while Deana is in the hopsital, Madeline Erikson is near you. She is a big breeder and rescue person and very resourceful and helpful. I am not suggesting rescue. I am saying maybe she has some resource to come and take care of the dogs in your home so you an stay with Deena in the hospital. I'm sure someone here has her contact info...

Poor Deena, I bet is worried sick about the doggys...Knwoing they're okay will help her recover...And will give you peace of mind to stay at her side...
We are very familiar with Madeline - We've rescued 3 OES's from her and she lives quite close to us and has visited our home on several occasions. Thanks for the suggestion and bless you for responding. Thank you.

I am so sorry....will be praying that she gets better quickly..and I agree with Ron, you both have had a rough time of it recently. :ghug: :ghug:
I am so very sorry to hear that. Our prayers are with you and your family.

Lisa and Frankie
Oh No! Take care of yourself while you are running back and forth between home and the hospital. You are both in my thoughts
Thank you for letting us know. I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers. Let her know that we miss her and wish her a speedy recovery. You take care of YOU too!
Richard - thanks so much for posting. I was wondering what was going on. Last time Deana posted she was having trouble with her legs and the edema, weeping and infection. Now pneumonia - I'm so sorry. :( And you just home and recovering too. :(

Please give Deana my best wishes. Pneumonia is so draining....
How awful. I hope she gets better soon. It has been a tough year for both of you. :(
I was sick earlier this year; and we did a lot of doggy day care to help keep the dogs exercised and active, as well as out from under foot. Maybe you have some place they can go like that near you? That way, you can go to the hospital to visit Deena and not have to race home to let the dogs out.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Please know that you both are in my prayers :ghug:
I hope Deana gets well soon. You guys really deserve a break from all this. Hang in there!
You guys can't catch a break this year!!! Pls let Deana know that we are thinking of her and praying for her.

Don't forget to take care of yourself or you will be in the bed next to her!!!
Oh no poor Deana. Please send our best wishes to her from the UK. I know if I was ill I would want my other half to read me all the posts from here every day :lol: We love you Deana, please get better soon! Lots of gentle hugs from us & sheepie kisses from Rufus.
Keep in touch, and please be gentle with yourself Sheepie Daddy :ghug:
I echo what every one else has said, I pray Deana has a speedy recovery. Take care of yourself remember to eat properly, hugs to you, your wife and the doggies....xx
Hugs and prayers to your family!
Oh poor Deana!! Richard so sorry to hear she is not well!! Tell her me and the girls send lots of sheepie hugs and xxx's and wish her a Speedy Recovery 'Get Well Soon Deana'!! :ghug:
Oh no! Please tell her we're thinking of you guys and that she gets better soon.

I am so sorry to hear this Richard. The two of you have certainly had your share of health issues lately. I'm praying for goood news soon. Please keep us posted.

On another note, how are YOU??? And, are OESMommy's legs healing?

Let's hope you are both better by spring, so you can enjoy the outdoors and those adorable pups!
She's a big part of our community and I'm sad that I'm JUST NOW reading this (lost by new format). I have her in my thoughts and will be looking for all the updates.

UPDATE! As of yesterday the antibiotics didn't seem to be working and had to be changed to another. Her breathing seemed to be a little better last night. Along with everything else they are addressing the wounds on her legs.

I know I'm supposed to be taking better care of myself too, but I just can't seem to eat and I must pace 100 miles a day...

I hope there's some improvement when I go down this morning. Thank you ALL for your prayers and well-wishes. I will update here again with more news... Thank you all...
Poor Deana! Poor Richard! You guys just can't seem to catch a break this year. :oops:

I know how hard this must be for you, Richard. But you HAVE to take care of yourself because how you are will directly affect Deana's state of mind too.

You both are in my prayers.
thank you so much for keeping us updated! Would it be possible to get an address to send get well cards to?

Thank you for all your concerns. This afternoon they put her on a respirator because her breathing was so bad. I just came home to care for my sheepies, let them out - feed them - play with them, etc. When I left she seemed to be at ease. Her children are with her now. Some of you know how difficult it is to see your life partner in that condition and can't do anything to help.

The address for the hospital is Lakeside Memorial Hospital, 156 West Avenue, Brockport, NY 14420. At this time she remains in ICU (Room 1) but is not conscious enough to know. They might be a great blessing when she recovers. With all our love and prayers she will be back soon.

Thank you.

Very sorry to hear about your loss........I lost my oldest last month too. Very hard, indeed.

Deana, however, is a 2-legged member here. She has OES, but doesn't happen to be one!
This is awful news! All my prayers are with you both for some more improvements and a swift recovery
Just found this thread: So sorry to hear that Deanna is ill. Prayers and hugs to you both and to the sheepies.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
I also too just found this post. I send prayers and best wishes to you both. You also need to remember to take care of yourself so that you can better help her. Please let us know how she's doing.......Kathy
Thinking of both of you and sending prayers ~~~ :ghug: :ghug:
Richard and Deanna,

Sending hugs and heartfelt wishes to you both.

Marianne
Hugs to you and your family.

:ghug:

Julianne and Marley
I hope she pulls through quickly. :ghug:
Awww so orry to here Deana is poorly :cry: sending her a speedy recovery xx Hugs to you Richard and the sheepies xx

Another update!

Deana was removed from the respirator for a short time - but because she was breathing shallow and her heart-rate was faster than it should be she was put back on it. Things seen to be looking up (at least right now). We still need your prayers and well-wishes!

Her eyes were open today but she did not recognize me or respond to my voice. It hurts so bad! Maybe some improvement tomorrow. I'll post again.

Yesterday and today we had about 16 inches of snow - which really slows down the traveling. Why now???

I appreciate ALL your prayers and hopes that she comes back to us soon. Thank you.
Still praying for you both. :cry:
For what its worth...My Mom was on a respirator on and off throughout her illness. It was not uncommon that the first time they took her off, she had to be put back. So I wouldn't let that discourage you. They also sometimes keep the patient ( Deena) a bit sedated with the respirator so she may be a bit groggy and not recognize you or show she recognizes you I should say. She can hear you and feel you. Talk to her, hold her hand, tell her everyone is okay and the dogs are okay. She will hear you. You just won't know it...

We send our prayers and well wishes :ghug:
Must be so scary for you all... I hope she's feeling better quickly.
Hang in there, Richard.
As mentioned, the drugs make Deana more groggy and disoriented, so keep up the touch and chatter.
The snow timing really bites for you - makes the trips in and out that much more difficult than it needs to be.

Big hugs to both of you and give Deana our best :ghug: :ghug:
still thinking of you all! Lots of thoughts of health and happiness coming your way!!!!!
:ghug:
I am checking for your updates everyday, Richard. I'm sorry you have poor weather to contend with on top of all of this. I sure hope you're doing better about taking care of yourself now so you can be strong enough to take care of her!

Wishing healing and strength for you both.
Still thinking about you both too. Hoping for a fast recovery!!
Come on Deana!
Still praying and thinking of you both.

Lisa and Frankie
We are praying for an upturn in Deanna's condition and hope eveything turns out well.
How is Deana.. Richard! sending :ghug: from the UK!!! xxx
Thinking of you today! Hope you're feeling a little better.
Another update!

Deana was taken off the respirator for 3 hours today and she had her eyes opened and seemed to respond more than yesterday. She was able to breath on her own for a while. I told her I posted here and that everybody sends her love. They put her back on the respirator to ease her breathing. I pray this is a first step for her in recovering. I told her our babies need her as much as I do. The doctors say it's up to her now... I hope each day it gets a little better. Thank you for your prayers and concerns. God bless you.

Richard
My prayers continue for both of you.
:ghug: :ghug:
Thats great news Richard.
Hugs and Prayers to the whole family
:ghug:

Lisa and Frankie
Very good news!!!! :D
That's so good to hear! :ghug:
Richard: Thank you for the update. Good news that Deana could breath on her own for a while. Crossing fingers and saying prayers that she is home with you soon.
I hope Deanna continues to improve.
Wishing Deanna and you all the best and sending hopes and hugs :ghug:
:D Sending our best wishes!! We have a new story and we will wait until Deanna is feeling well enough to be read to! Love and hugs! :ghug:
Very good news--will continue to pray for Deanna's complete recovery.

GOOD NEWS! (GREAT NEWS!)

I brought Deana home from the hospital today. She can complete her recovery here with my help. God bless you all for your wishes and kisses. She will be logging on, probably in the very near future. She still has quite a ways to go but with all our help together she'll make it soon.
