Monday, November 29th

Dear Dad,

There were two different scenarios for your struggling kidneys. We are so blessed that it's the better of the two. You had muscle breakdown in your urine. This can be taken care of unlike the other scenario that would have caused permanent damage. Your oxygen levels were better last night, than the night before. They did a x-ray of your lungs today and they also look a little better than the previous x-ray. They are watching your blood pressure. They want it to be at least at 60, but shooting for over 80. Last time we got an update it was at 78. They don't want your blood pressure to drop too low, to make sure the blood is circulating in your brain. We are very grateful for all the small things that continue to improve bit by bit. It's always a comfort hearing good news.

We miss you.

Love,

Us

  2. Dear Brother Brown,

    You and your family are in my prayers and in my thoughts. I talked to Maddie the other day. She told me that Michelle has been an incredible example to everyone and that she keeps reminding everyone that you are going to be alright. If anyone would know this, it would be her. The love and devotion the two of you have for each other and for your family has always been a geat reminder to me of our Savior and the love He has for us. I know that this is a long road that you and your family face, but I also know that you will be alright. The Lord is with you all and will help you through these difficult times especially when the road in front of you may even be difficult to see. Please know that I am here if you and your family need anything at all. The acts of kindness you and yours have shown me have touched my life for the good. So please know that whether it be a small and simple thing you need or something you hate to ask someone for , I am willing and able to help you guys whenever you need me. When you are up to it let me know because there is a Banana Cake with your name on it!

    Love,
    Angie Bagnoli

  3. I am glad that Kris is keeping this blog. I check it each day hoping for good news, and was pleased today that there was some improvements. I report to Linda Carter because she does not have the internet, but she is also concerned and watching and waiting for info on how you are doing. I am sure all the ward and neighborhood are rooting for you. Your family is such an example of how things are meant to be. I have admired that about you all as I have watched you thru the years. You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers always. Love Janette

    We have had posts from all of us kids and they are great! I thought I would write you a little something dog! We are always thinking about you, every second of every day waiting for you to get out of that hospital bed and come be with us. I have given you a couple a blessings and been able to come in and spend some time with you. You are a strong man, the strongest I know and I know that you are going to pull out of this and when you look back and read this post, we can look back together and be grateful for the progess that you will have had! We miss you! Colin misses his grandpa! Get better! Love you dog!
