Rick, I didn't want to say anything until I knew more, but my brother-in-law is also extremely sick with much of the same symptoms. Also septic, tons of fluid, 82/50 blood pressure, chills, debilitating spasms, etc. Today is 6 days in the hospital and finally, the doctors found an antibiotic that combats the infection. We are in Maryland so definitely no connection. I've spoken with him (he respectfully wants no visitors and I know exactly why) and he barely can complete a sentence without losing his breath. This hit him like a freight train. He is also trained as a first responder (retired Balto. City FD Captian) so he knows how serious this really is.
Thank God your wife is on the mend and on the road to recovery. My prayers were with both of you and of course my brother-in-law.
I firmly believe in the power of prayer and positive thinking, and I also believe your dogs were an inspiration for your wife.
