Thank you Bronson Trauma Team!
December 4, 2015, was a very scary day for my family. I apparently was very ill for about 6 weeks or more. After several trips to my family doctor. He said my issues will go away if only I. Would lose weight. This is true but on December 4, 2015, my daughter called too. Check on me because I hadn't felt good the day before. When my husband woke me around 7:00 am, I was found slurring words, and stumbling around. When the paramedics arrived I was unable to respond. After arriving at. Bronson. The trauma team went at my condition at full power, trying everything they could think of, but they were unable to do any testing that involved dying. My vital organs were beginning to shut down. They told my husband and children that it looks like immediate surgery, to put in. Colonoscopy bag. They came out of surgery saying it was not necessary for the procedure to be done. They called in any family that would like to see me to say goodbye. They did find in the 2 exploratory surgery, this time they had found an ulcer that have blown a very large hole in my stomach. During all this time running extremely high temperatures. I also went Secptic. Then on the 3 rd day, they put blue die my stomach to be sure the hole was completely shut. I had blue coming out of every Orpheus in my body. My daughter said I looked like a blue smurf. They found another ulcer that actually put an even larger hole in my stomach. At that time they removed my spleen and appendix. Then another bleed was found in the inner wall of my stomach, it was like an aneurysm and the only way to correct this type of issue is catching it at the time of the bleed. so the doctor sit in my room for 45 minutes waiting to cauterize the bleeding. He went that extra mile in my care.i was in an induced coma for seventeen days. I was hospitalized in Bronson's trauma unit from Dec.4 until Feb 5.2016!
The Trauma team I want to applaud them on a job well done. They found the issue and they went to work.
Between the Prayers going up on my behalf and the great group of doctors. I am still here breathing on my own.
I was incubated for breathing I then had to go into another facility to be weened from the breathing machine. I went into a facility in Grand Rapids in which I was there from Feb.2016 until March 23, 2016!!
After reading on the Internet, normally people don't pull through this kind of thing. I am even more convinced that with the quickness of the Trauma team, and the Lord being utilized through the Trauma team. And all the prays from all over the universe people praying on my behalf. Thank you Bronson Trauma Team
