Notforgotten Farm : A little scare...

A little scare...

We spent 6 hours in the emergency room yesterday ~Peter woke up with a raging bloody nose and super high blood pressure... we finally got the bleeding stopped after about an hour,
and called the ambulance to take him in since his BP was so high(his family has a history of high bp, but his was never high before yesterday)
the Dr. ordered a CTscan, and it presented negative results,
thank the stars....he has been prescribed meds for his nose and will follow up with the dr. for his bp... in the meantime,
I'm trying to keep him home & relaxed...that's about as easy as herding cats. So,please keep us in your thoughts ~ I'll be working on orders and packaging today,
then back to working on my new quilting project... Hoping you are all well and looking forward to Spring! Blessings from the Farm...

Hope everything turns out o.k.
It's hard to think of spring with all the snow we received the last two days ~ and it's still snowing.

Susan said...: Glad Peter is doing better w/ BP but how to get them to rest is another thing! All men seem to run the same way.

I like to new pics of your shop - seems much brighter and open now - must be that new counter Peter built!

Happy Stitching and Designing!; February 22, 2011 at 12:53 PM

Penny said...: Get well wishes to Peter -- hope he gets that BP down soon. My daughter has gotten severe bloody noses ever since she was a little one (she is now 31, and still gets them from time to time). Usually it's in the winter with the dry heat. It is very frightening -- hope you have a restful day.....; February 22, 2011 at 1:30 PM

debbie said...: Oh, Lori- how scary! Hope Peter is following Dr's orders, so important to keep our BP's under control. Amazing how much bleeding can come from a nosebleed, hope he doesn't have any more of those!
Love your shop pics, hope to get there & to meet you one day! Take care! Debbie :); February 23, 2011 at 9:44 AM
