Mel3620 299 Posted July 19, 2013 I am sitting in the worst chairs in the world inside an ER room with my 19 year old. He has been feeling bad all week. He works... No workED at a landscape company, and has been outside in this extreme heat. I took him to urgent care on Tuesday. He was not dehydrated, but his sugar was at 49. After work yesterday, he basically collapsed in the bathroom. His sugar was 156, he had cramps, vomiting pretty much all day. It looks like he is severely dehydrated. His kidneys were horrible when we got here and they have moved to bad at this point. Going in the right direction, but not great yet. They are not admitting him yet. So, we sit in this uncomfortable room and try to last through the night. Prayers appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SW: 335.5 CW: 304 GW: 150 I found the educators forum under social groups and I would love to join but it keeps asking for a forum password. Anyone know where I could retrieve my password as I have NO IDEA what it could be?

Kristi 195 Posted July 19, 2013 here is the link to the group http://www.rnytalk.com/groups/show/12-educators/ I made it a public group when I created it so I'm not sure why it asked for a password… One other person has joined the group. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hautechic13 41 Posted July 19, 2013 hek1127- what do you teach?hautechick- what are you studying? RJ- LOVE this… "4AM - Up and at them!!! in reality I lay in bed and check RNY talk till 5am " I bought a fitbit flex (i had the zip before) and when the site is working I love it. It tracks my steps' date=' my sleep, calories burned.. you can track your food, Water all sorts… and I love the dashboard so I can keep track of it all. When you reach your step goal for the day you feel the Bracelet vibrate on your wrist. It also syncs with Map my walk. I think this is a link for a referral and will give you more info if interested, http://bit.ly/1dI4WOa[/quote'] I am studying integrated marketing communications Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
