Hospital Visit

Monday night I awoke to a sharp pain in my pelvis and abdomen, along with a great amount of pressure. I discovered that the nephrostomy tubes had clogged from infection and the urine was again backing into my left kidney, my only working one. After trying to stretch a little to do anything to dislodge the clog we had to call our hospice nurse. She was great, but could not get it free either. So at 9:00 am, I was on my way via ambulance to the hospital. They ended up replacing the tubes all the way back into both kidneys. The left one began to function right away. I stayed for observation Tuesday night and headed home on Wednesday. All in all, it went very professionally, but I'm glad to be back home again. My best to all of you today along with thoughts on a wonderful upcoming spring!!

  1. Hi Brian,
    do they know what causes the blockage, I mean how did they know it was infected? Blood tests? I am wondering because I am trying to watch for this with Terence, but not really knowing what to look for.
    I hope you are rested from the new procedures and am glad they are working again.
    Many blessings,
    Sherry Luttrell

    1. There was a lot of sediment in the left kidney bag. The right kidney is non-functioning. I think based on the amount of protein, etc that was caked around the tube exit inside the bag, that it likely was the cause inside as well. The hospice nurse said if we see that starting again, we will be able to flush the tubes and bags more proactively before it clogs entirely.

The courier service can transport it to me so he told me the amount I will pay, so my dad paid for the delivery fee. two days later I receive the cure from the courier service so I used it as the herbal man instructed me to, before the week complete my sister cancer was healed and it was like a dream to me not knowing that it was physical I and my family were very happy about the miracle of Doctor so my dad wanted to pay him 5 million us dollars the herbal man did not accept the offer from my dad, but I don't know why he didn't accept the offer, he only say that I should tell the world about him and his miracle he perform so am now here to tell the world about him if you or your relative is having any kind of disease that you can't get from the hospital please contact dr.sakuraspellalter@gmail.com or whats app him +2348110114739  you can follow him up on Instagram @herbalist_sakura for the cure, he will help you out with the problem.
