Hi,
thank you eveyone for your well wishes.

It has been a worrying time.

It's strange how things sometimes happen for the best.

He went in with blood poisoning from a pressure sore that wasn't healing, and they accidently discovered the aorta (to the stomach area, not near the heart was now nearly 100% blocked. Apparently it blocked 27 years ago when he had an accident & broke his back, and the blockage has gradually gotten worse.
Scary part is , he's enjoyed remarkably good health over all those years( especially for a parapalegic) and he's never been back to hospital in all those years.
According to the vascular surgeons who operated on him, it would have only been a matter of time, till it blocked totally, and he wouldn't have been with us anymore.

Apparently the spinal unit at the hospital is now reveiwing some of their procedures.
They're thinking that if hubby has managed to escape detection for all those years, there may be other patients out there from many years ago, who might also have escaped detection and have possible similar problems without knowing it.

Anyway, good part is, he's slowly getting better.

thanks everyone

best wishes
Rikki

Glad to see you back. I'm sure it's been a very stressful time. Glad all seems to be going well now. Sounds like it was touch and go for awhile. Hope you get a little time to relax with your KN7000 now. Music is wonderful therapy for stress.
