Barry Sloe Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 For those of you that know Hugo Bear, he is my older brother. He is currently in the hospital fighting a rare blood infection. On top of that, on Monday he is going to have open heart surgery to replace a heart valve that was affected by the infection. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Barry Sloe Update: 8-9-21; surgery still scheduled for today. I will post another update as soon as he's out of surgery. 8-9-21: surgery has been postponed until Tuesday or Wednesday. 8-9-21: surgery was postponed until Wednesday because he is retaining too much water. So, more meds for that and trying to make it to Wednesday. 8-11-21: he is currently in surgery to replace the heart valve. The surgery will take a few hours. From there to cardiac ICU. 8-11-21: Dave (Hugo) is out of surgery and all is good. 8-12-21: Dave will be in cardiac ICU for 7 to 10 days. He had to have one heart valve replaced along with a bypass. Surgery was 7.5 hours long. 8-20-21: Stopped in and talked with Dave for a bit today. He's in a "transition" room, not Cardiac ICU but not a regular room. They had him up walking the halls this morning to help build his strength up. He wasn't as groggy as the first time I saw him, that's a definite plus. No discharge date as yet, but will be going to rehab upon discharge. Thank you for all the prayers. It's working. BS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
