Default Grandpa in the hospital

So far its looking like a severe case of the shingles....all over his body, even on the bottom of his feet.

The er thought it was MRSA at first but we are still waiting for test results.


If you can, please pray for what ever is God's plan.

My father-inlaw has shingles near his eye and the pain he had was almost unbearable but it cleared up. Took a long time though. Prayers out Mel for your Grandpa.

BTW, he got the shingles while he was IN THE HOSPITAL.

Thanks everyone, it means allot to me

We are NOT happy with the care given by a few doctors. One said it was just cellucitis in the nose. Didn't look at anything else. The second one said the spots didn't concern him at all. His BP was 72/58 the last time it was taken at the drs office. We had to push to get him to call the hospital. INSANE. He is getting better. Not sure how long he will be in here.

Thanks again

Sorry to hear about your Grandfather having shingles. It is a very miserable thing to go through and you both are in my prayers.
