Just Another Jen Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I just got a call that my oldest son has been taken to the hospital in Salt Lake City. He has a high fever, is dehydrated, incoherent speech etc. He has been up in the mountains for over a month at about 9000 ft. They are testing now for meningitis. I'm flying out first thing in the morning. So yeah- stress and worry are what I'm feeling right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBM Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Oh, no. Sending many prayers that he will be okay. Just going to add that a brother of mine used to live in SLC and had to go to the hospitals there a few times. I am betting the people your son sees are very conscientious and will do everything they can for him. My brother was impressed with the care he got. Be safe yourself on your way there. :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Another Jen Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 There's been no change overnight. it's bacterial- they think. His heart rate and fever are still up. I'm on stand by for the 945 flight this morning. If I don't get that one I have a good shot at the noon flight. I did get to talk to him in icu. He was trying to joke about fungus so that's a good sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
