2015 and Back in ER and ICU and working on solution

Over the years Mike has had his issues with infection, pleurisy, fever and exhaustion but for almost 99% of the time he has kept going, teaching, writing, curating and living fully. We are the lucky ones because the new kidney...Amy's kidney worked amazingly. But, as with any health situation there are issues and we are now dealing with a big one.

Mike is in this loop where his old kidneys, the two they left inside of him, are infected and full of cysts from the polycystic kidney disease. They are now infecting his blood which is causing fever and other issues. He was in ICU for four days and is now resting at home. He is without fever today which is what we are trying to sustain.

Some doctors are saying take the old kidneys out and end infection. But other doctors think his new kidney may fail during the surgery which is very invasive. But, if the old kidneys stay the infection can continue and hurt him in other ways. The loop is where we are right now.

We are taking it one day at a time and keeping optimistic that a best solution will be found for Mike.

Mike is a fighter and this is nothing new. He has been fighting this for the past 15 plus years. So, as expected health challenged occur and we are take them on full tilt.

Thank you for your love and support.
Andrea
