Adrestia Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Jarrod is improving, but he still has a very long road ahead. He is in no way even [i]close [/i]to out of the woods, but they did manage to slow down the blood loss. (He was going through so much that at one point they were scared that the blood bank would run out.) He's still on ECMO and went back on continuous dialysis, but he did not code during his latest surgery! Anyway, PLEASE keep praying - it's working!

PaladinSoG Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Do you know if Jarrod was at one time part of a group called SALT. One of our head administrators for SALT has asked for us to pray for a Jarrod Kimble. I'm just wondering if this is the same Jarrod. I myself, have never met Jarrod but I'm praying all the same, SALT's family, whether I've met them or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrestia Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Probably. I don't think Jarrod Kimble is that popular of a name. I've also never met him. I know Danielle, his new wife (they married about 2 months ago) . She helps to run the Catholic Medical Student Association at my workplace (although the word "Student" is in the title, the group is open to staff & faculty). Thanks for the prayers! He will be needing them for quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southern california guy Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 [quote name='tgoldson' timestamp='1298316312' post='2214455'] Jarrod has H1N1 (a.k.a. swine flu). He's back in surgery for another ECMO cannula repositioning. Please keep praying! [/quote] Good grief, H1N1. I guess some people really reacted badly to that. What's a ECMO cannula repositioning? It sounds like he does need prayers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrestia Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 ECMO ([b]e[/b]xtra[b]c[/b]orporeal [b]m[/b]embrane [b]o[/b]xygenation) denotes the use of prolonged extracorporeal cardiopulmonary bypass, usually via extrathoracic cannulation.

IcePrincessKRS Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 This is so sad. I can only imagine how heartbreaking this is for her. Prayers for her in her time of mourning, and for the repose of his soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrestia Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 The facebook prayer page is now collecting stories about Jarrod. If anyone ever doubts that they can make a difference in someone else's life, go to that page. In 23 measly years, this guy has done more than many people do in 70. I still can't think about it without crying. Jarrod's big sister wrote that the outpouring of support has been a comfort to the family. I couldn't even begin to imagine life without my little brother... and Danielle is way too young to be a widow. I am so incredibly lucky/blessed to still have my nuclear family intact.
