We need your prayers!!!
Dad was rushed to the hospital on Saturday with a serious infection. He has Streptococcus pneumoniae bacterial meningitis. Dad was transferred to Stanford via life flight from Santa Cruz on Sunday. Dad really is in the fight now! Yesterday the concern was that he wake up from his state of confusion and inability to speak. Today we see an improvement from yesterday. Dad recognized mom, said "hi" and gave a little wave. He also said he wanted a Pepsi and gave one of his patented sideways "Ed" glances when we said "no".
He is in the thick of it. When asked what I should put in the blog he said "holy shit!". So he is still in there between his in and out of consciousness.
Dad is tough but he needs all the good juju he can get.
Please pray for the strength to fight this most recent battle.

Ed and the Whole Gang,

ReplyDeleteDear Lesnowicz family: We are so upset by this set-back. We will send nothing but prayers and positive thinking your way. We are confident that this, too, shall pass. In the meantime, we are on the ready to help in any way that you need it -- and we truly mean anything that you need. Please don't hesitate to ask.
Please tell your dad that he's the strongest man we know and he should keep up the good fight. We are looking forward to seeing him this summer sans antibiotics and wine glass in hand!
Please give a special hug to your mom for us. We can't imagine how hard it this must be for her.
Our love to all of you.
Chris, Sue and Mike

ReplyDeleteYou know we are all praying!! Called Clista & Jon. They put Uncle Ed/Family on their church's praying chain. Clista called Linda Samples and she did the same with her church, as we did ours. With everyone else praying, too, I know Uncle Ed is going to pull through this.
Thank you for the updates.
Love and Hugs
Thinking of you all 24/7.
Ed, Keep fighting! I have asked our Priest and congregation to pray for you and you have all of the Connallys! St Barbara has your back Ed, keep fighting!

ReplyDeleteEd---just heard about your slight problem from our former CO, Jerry McAbee. Sounds like you're trying to be a "sickbay commando" to me! (:>) Seriously buddy---I'm using water cooled, belt felt rosary beads for you! If there is someone who can hang tough---its you!
