Make Light for Lt. Lydy

MY SWEET HUSBAND,
This might not be the love story that will get us a best seller novel. This might not be what many other significant others signed up for when they decided to commit to one another, but things happen and things can change in a matter of minutes. Yeah, you agreed to “in sickness and in health” but we all assume “sickness” refers to a cold or old age. We never think “sickness” refers to a chronic illness.
My husband who some people might know as Lt. Lydy(work), DJ as his nickname for Douglas John (who have known that one) or My sweet, sexy, big hearted (literally), big head or my love (a few of many that I call him) would imagine something like this would happen to him.  
He was diagnosed with Organized Pneumonia and Hypoxemia( a low level of oxygen in the blood). This started 8 months ago. He was miss diagnosed twice, one time with the Flu and the second with a Cold.  He, on both occasions took medication and at some point it kind of resolved but in reality not at all. 
Then it happened. One day he woke up and didn’t feel well. He was getting shortness of breath and couldn’t lay down to sleep because he felt he was drowning. This time was scary and different. Going to the doctor once again wasn’t his cup of tea but there he went and me as his wife  demanded a chest X-ray and a Valley Fever Test since he was having many symptoms that correlate with the Valley Fever. Results came back on the 3rd day and we returned to the doctors office to get the results of the test. Doctor told us its definitely Pneumonia! His Oxygen levels were down to 88% due to the water in his lungs.  After getting home with that news he took his medicine and tried laying down but he could not lay down he was gasping for air and we decided to go to the emergency room. When they took his vitals in the ER his Oxygen had dropped to a staggering 83%!!! They immediately took him back and put him on oxygen while they proceeded to do a thousand tests to figured out what he was having. He was hospitalized that same day and was put on oxygen immediately and he was using 95% liters of oxygen to be able to breathe and oxygenate his blood since his lungs were on the brink of collapsing. Everyday was a struggle with him trying to breathe and trying to find out what got him to this point. As a consequence of his lungs not working properly he had developed what they called a flutter in his heart which means his heart rhythm was either low or high. He was having pauses where his heart stopped for 3 seconds twice and for 7.5 seconds a third time. Nurses running in, me waking up with all the commotion because they thought he was gone. Everyday was a new issue and a new diagnose. In order to regulate his heart rhythm because of his lungs not being able to work normally he had a procedure called Atrial Fibrillation Ablation (used to treat irregular heart beats) to make his big heart, as I mentioned before, to get back to his normal beats without pausing. His battle is not won yet. After 22 days in the hospital, He has to be on a ventilator because his lungs still have fluids and because of that he developed scars tissue in his lungs which the doctors hope will heal over time.  This will be a long process to recovery. The time for that is unknown and uncertain. At this point we have to wait and see. Be patient which is not my husband's strong suit. The  days overwhelmed him and not knowing what will happen worries him. The people who knows him knows he is a hard working man, a caretaker, a true friend and a great man. For me he is ALL. Simple as that. No matter how big or small he gets he is my everything. He used to smile and be joking nonstop. Now He rarely does. He is too worried. It hasn't been easy. He is angry, and I am angry too that this happened to him. The ever-growing piles of bills keep growing and we have done everything in our power to make it on our own but it’s impossible. 
Having a beautiful picture of a loving and healthy husband with kids is every woman’s dream.
Sometimes, this perfect family doesn’t always happen exactly the way we wish. This is simply due to the fact that life is always evolving and sometimes we get what we never bargained for. You may be prepared for this if you are already aware of any health concerns in your family. However, if it’s a sudden situation, like ours, where you never  prepared for this development in regard to anyone health, it could be one of the most challenging times for everyone.  I'm reaching out to you because We finally got to the point that we need help because we can’t do this by ourselves. Our dearest friend is setting this up for us and started a GoFundMe for Lt. Lydy to help us get us closer to seeing the piles of bills go down a little. 
If you could support my GoFundMe by making a donation and then sharing it with your friends and family we would greatly appreciate it. I know that money can be tight, so please know that anything will helps us get closer to his sanity! Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll be happy to answer them. Thank you so much ♥️
Mr. and Mrs. Lydy
