Jean in Newcastle Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 (edited) He just called me telling me that he's driving himself to seek medical help. There was some kind of chemical leak that has required a mass evacuation. He's not bad enough to seek medical help on the scene but is going to go in himself. Personally I would go to the ER that is right across the street, but he's insisting on going somewhere more local to our house. Once I finished yelling at him to call 9-1-1 if he starts to get bad, I decided that I should pray for him. I'd appreciate your prayers. It may very well be one of those "let's just watch and see how you're doing now that you're away from the scene" sort of things but I worry a bit. Update: Dh is home. He said that the doctor basically took 1 1/2 hours to say that he's ok as far as he can tell and that rest is the best cure right now.

Jean in Newcastle Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 The building has been ok'd for reentry by the HazMat team. Most people are back to work. A couple of people were affected more than others and are seeking medical care, dh among them. He said that his heart was skipping beats. He's being checked out right now (he called to say that he got there safely). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 Wow! I did not see anything on the news. I hope he is okay. Komo4 had a thing on it. I don't know if the other stations did. It actually happened around 6 am. Dh arrived at work to find helicopters circling the building and the entire block cordoned off. He went in anyway. . . :glare: (They had ok'd it because they couldn't find the source of the problem.) He didn't feel sick until hours later. People were later sent home.

Mama Geek Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I just saw this, I am glad that all appears well with your husband. Several years ago there was a train wreck and chlorine gas leaked close to my mom and lots of friends in my hometown. It is scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenL Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I just read your update, Jean! I am so glad the dr. said he is okay; however, I will continue to pray that rest is all that is needed as well as pray for all those affected. How frightening for you!!! Glad your dh is safe!

Jean in Newcastle Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Jean, how is he today? I hope all is well! :grouphug: He's ok. His heart is still skipping some beats on occasion. He'll probably have to get one of those holter monitor things so they can figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
