Sandy's Story

Life Hi to all Perry people who are interested in my life. Well to telll the truth I'm lucky to have my life right now. I had a very close call with the grimm reaper March 2007. I was sick so my hubby took me to the ER and they said I had phenioum (ya know I know I didn't spell that right LOL)they were all ready to release me to go home and we were just waiting for the nurse to take out my IV. Well,I crashed and they brought me back. I didn't really even know any of this until 9 days ,that's right nine days, when I came out of my coma! I spent a total of 17 days at Aultman Hospital and when they could no longer do anything for me we made the trip to Cleveland Clinc where I spent another 17 days. Wow what an experience. I was on such strong antibotics that they had to change my location of my IV just about every 15 or so hours,it got to the point where I was known as a hard stick. I had so many tests and scans done on me while I was there it isn't even funny. Alot of the time they would come to get me right as they brought my food tray or worse they brought it when I was gone and then took it before I got back or if still there food cold,but everyone knows about hospital food anyways. Well right before I came home they took a scan of my back and alot of fluid on my lungs. so they had to stick these needles into my back to numb it and then they stuck these very long needles into my lungs to draw out the fluid,they got 2 full litres ...Expand for more
out of each lung and after that I could breath better and best of all I got to come home. After being in the hospital for 34 days I had no muscle tone at all in my legs or arms. The skin on the back of my legs just hung there. I started therpy for my legs and arms and gradually I strenghened both. I was also on oxygen 24/7,but thank goodness I'm totally off of it now. If you didn't know it before I was a smoker,did you notice that I said was a smoker? I no longer smoke that is why I'm not on oxygen any more which is good but if you have ever smoked you know what it is like to quit and still want one even when you know you shouldn't or lets have another candy bar. Yes it has taken a toll on my weight but as soon as I find out what is wrong with my leg I'm joining a workout club!!!!!! Now on the lighter side my hubby and I are raising my two grandkids. taylor is 7 and tobias is 6. His daughter is going to have a baby end of Feb. beginning of March,and his step daughter is going to have twins in july if she can carry them that long,she she pencil thin.So we are going to be grand parents again yeah!!!!!! I am retired now because of my health. I keep pretty busy taking care of the kids and hubby. Right now I'm home alone,hubbys working and kids are at a friends until later tonight think I'll treat my self to subway,yummy. One more thing before I go just in case you don't know Sandy Ady is my married name,Sandy Snyder was my maiden. bye
