thanks for your concerns, my husband has been with him most the day he is just resting...lung doctor says he will prob be in hospital for about a week...and he thinks he will get better and go home than...looking like the meds are doing there thing for now..of course I know it takes a normal healthy person weeks/months to get over pneumonia...so I am sure this is another battle....of course he will not be going home to home health care since he lives alone....he will more than likely go back to nursing home....we are hoping no hoops to cross with his insurance...as of 2 weeks ago his skilled nursing coverage was depleted but I believe a hospital stay for at least 3 days would grant another 60 days....praying that anyways....either way he needs to be 24 -7 care..thanks for the hugs and support..will post more as i know
