So the lungs aren't swapping the CO2 for O2, or is it a chemical thing??

Ha ha ha!!! Lee, doing a little troublshooting there? Pardon the pun but I guess it's in your blood.

Mark,

Ok, enough is enough! You need to get better and get out of that hospital. My grandfather always said "a hospital is no place for sick people". We all miss you and I'm sure you don't want to be in there anymore anyway.

Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to assist.
 
Well yeah. Can't have Mark falling face down on the bench in a random manner. Could be the power supply to the circulator, and aspiration circuit.
 
Update

All,

Couldn't visit Mark last week but saw him today. I almost didn't recognize him as he's sporting a new short hair cut. In my view, he continues to improve. While I was there, he went through therapy and did well. He's strong willed and a fighter but he's still got a ways to go.

I know your messages to him help keep him going. Please keep them coming.

Today, I brought him a laptop holder (that he's in the process of modifying) and that will make his posting and surfing easier. He also now has Word 2010 and Excel 2010 on his new laptop. He's been using the laptop to communicate as the ventilator makes it tough to talk.

Thanks again to all of you for making this possible.

In first place you're the one who makes this possible. Thanks for taking care!

Mark: I guess with the laptop holder 'loan' it may be easier to use the laptop, and hopefully you don't exaggerate on doing so, but nonetheless it is always relieving to see your avatar popping up once in a while...
All the best!

Frank
 
I hadn't known this had gone on due to my inactivity lately. I do hope you will continue to recover well, Mark.
 
Checking in! Today I'm starting my day with a bit of The Band, "The Shape I'm In" is up right now... where the heck did I set that coffee? Hope your day is always upward and onward! I'll be back later... Take care, Mark! :)
 
catching up here before dinner is flung through the door....

Robie visited, and unfortunately arrived just in time for a randomly floating physical therapy session - no set time... 0 1 or 2 per day, i have even had two before lunch,

he's not in the room 30 seconds, then the therapists take over, inviting him to stay.

things aren't THAT ironic, that quickly here, usually...

therapy was a rare, welcome treat, a second consecutive day in a row of sitting up. (edit(october)- feet over the edge of the bed!!)

however with the traditional hospital gown, he may have been mooned. it WAS chilly back there. Sorry Bob...

to repeat, i am at
Kindred Hospital Chicago Central
www.khchicagocentral.com/
4058 West Melrose Street Chicago, IL 60641

any suggestions for a USB based over the air digital tv tuner?

edit - I don't know what their cable was there, or why they even bothered having TV's in the room - it was horrendous, and IIRC no OTA networks at all.
and at times it would freeze, ALL the channels at ONCE!!

I tried, too... no dice. Must have been deleted?



Not to be alarmist, but perhaps some some thought should be given to some loaner laptop LoJack:

Note that this happened at another location... but still... have to remember that Mark is still kinda incapacitated.

And everyone remember that HIPAA acronym... going to be very important to our government when Obamacare kicks in.



Great to see you got yer marbles, Mark. Still pullin for ya.
 
Yep, I can't find anything either, and I used a special search that I have found to be very successful in finding hard to find bits of info and still nothing. It must have been edited or deleted by the OP.
 
Good to hear from you Mark. Do what you gotta do to take care of yourself.

BTW, I replaced the transistors in the SA-9100 like you suggested, and it works great now. Just thought I would let you know.


Rob
