But no serious problems. It's been decided, however, that from now on, I'll bring his home and work to him at a care facility. Treating his pressure sore has resulted in a slough of other emerging difficulties -- breaking-down of the skin on his back being the main one. It's in his best interest that he will be admitted into a facility where he can get the adequate care he needs, and as mentioned, I'll bring his home and his work to him at the facility.
Oh, no....prayers up, for dear JimRob and for Chris and John....for a smooth recovery, for Jim’s current issues, as well as the transition to this care facility.
Please keep us posted.
Generally 2 years from what I have read. Depending on storage.
Praying for Jim, praying that the doctors and nurses will be able to heal him from this terrible problem.🙏
Hope he is better.
Praying for you and Jim.
Apparently, it's now available on Amazon:

That would definitely put my bottle OUT OF DATE!! Guess I can take it outside and pour it out - can’t dump it in the sink with a septic system. Nice thunderstorm going on and that will take care of it. Thanks.
hoping he sees real comfort and less worry!!!
Chris, my grandmother recovered quickly from having added arginine in a Ensure-type drink.
You could get the benefit from the powder or capsules, the same.
Ask the doctor what dosages are best or okay.

keep fighting Jim.
Prayers up for Jim and the family.
Prayers!
Is he on what they used to call a Clinitron bed? Had a couple of patients on them, years ago. Consists of a big tub-like bed full of circulating air, with a thin membrane over it, with patient lying on top of it, creating almost no pressure on the body. Very expensive, if I recall, with Medicare/insurance only paying for it under extreme cases.
Best wishes for a fast recovery for your dad.
So sorry to learn this and prayers up 🙏🙏🙏
Have they checked his albumin levels? Given the skin breakdown you describe, it seems like they would have. Thanks for all you do for your Dad and hope you will keep us posted on his condition as time allows. I know you are very busy.
Prayers for YOU and your dad.
It is very taxing being the caregiver. Even though it has been many years, I remember those day all too well.
Prayers and best wishes for you, Jim.
Prayers for the Lord’s healing touch. Strength for his family.
