Hope he'll get well soon.

Good thoughts coming your way.

I wish you both comfort and your friend a speedy recovery.

We'll light a candle for you both tonight.

I hope he heals.

have the docs determined what is wrong yet?

from HBB and me.

Please keep us updated.

And you, as well.

Vibes for your friend and you. <3

And I'd lie in a heartbeat too. Bless you both.

and prayers for your friend.

Just got back from the hospital, he's still in critical condition but at least he's stable now.

Wasn't for sure if he was going to make it through the night so I stayed with him in case the worst happened (no one should ever pass on alone).

Apparently he had a varicose vein in his throat that popped (thats a new one on me, I only thought you could get those in your legs). He was literally bleeding to death inside his own body and at one point when he started to vomit thats where all the blood was coming from.

When the Emt's arrived at my house he was breathing but they could not get a blood pressure to read & when he got to the trauma center his blood pressure was only 53/23. They told me today if he had been 10 minutes later getting to the hospital he would not be with us now.

I hope this makes sense I'm still really stressed over this episode so I may not sound to coherent.

I want to that you all again for your thoughts & prayers, it has meant a lot.

Bill

healing thoughts and love to you both!

To look for the silver lining here, I'm glad to hear it was simply a varicose vein rather than something more important. If they stabilized him, I'm betting he'll come out of this okay.
