Dear Congregation ~
Yesterday, our good friend, Pops, was hospitalized. He was at the church but we had paramedics come to care for him when it became obvious that there were major health concerns. Pops is a diabetic and says he has been taking his insulin, but his blood sugar readings were incredibly high (1080).
He is now at Mercy Hospital where they are administering insulin often and have lowered his blood sugar (478 approx) and we think the target number is 140 for a normal high/borderline level.
We are uncertain at this point how long he will be hospitalized or where he will be after (there is a possibility that he will be moved into a Nursing Center) ~ but we will keep you informed.
If you wish to visit or contact Pops, as we lovingly call him, his name to give at the registration desk is Robert Watson.
