I am very sorry to hear this. Just to try and give you some hope, however:

I turned 39 last June. Last August I was in the hospital for a week (thankfully not intensive care) with congestive heart failure and cardiomyopathy. I don't have any blockages (arteries and veins are completely clear) but for some reason my heart muscle got weak. Due to receiving high doses of Lasix through my IV, I lost more than 35 pounds of mostly water in that one week. The heart cath indicated that my ejection fraction was a mere 15%. I am also borderline diabetic and take a pill daily because of that. I'm not completely 'better' and am still a potential candidate for an implanted defibrillator but am much improved, now, and have hope that your son can and will recover, as well.

I literally felt faint when I read this. May God give you strength to endure this, regardless of the outcome.

I have a 21 yr old son who was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes 6 years ago, and I worry about him every single day. Believe me, I feel your pain.

All of your thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated. The support from TGO has been overwhelming and I believe it has helped. My son is still in ICU but he is showing some improvement. Other than getting some occasional sleep, I've been nearly constantly by his side. He was very sick and the doctors caution that he's not out of the woods yet but I believe he's turned the corner and is moving toward recovery. Thank you all again for your thoughts an prayers.
