    Update on Brother John I finally secured access… 

    Update on Brother John: I finally secured access to the site, Thanks Dave. As I hope from my attempt to e-mail everybody, John Kardin has had sever health difficulties while in Florida this winter. Summarizing is case you are not aware: he had a hernia operation early and seem to recover okay, Any procedure with John’s condition is a concern. About three weeks ago , he complain of stomach pain, Judy took him to urgent care and the ER. Long story short, after additional testing and debate, his gale bladder was remove with 30-40 gale stone. The doctors also drained large qty. ( 5 liters) of fluid. Again shortening the story, he was released and sent back to the condo where he developed difficulties walking and sitting and fell a couple of time before he was taken back to the hospital. John’s condition has gone down hill since then. Mike and Brain flew to Florida and this morning I received a email reply that John is not doin well at all and that the family is investigating hospice. There is no plan to return to Michigan in the near future. PLEASE keep John and the family in your prayers. AS more information is learned, I will post.

    Presidents Message The Tri V summer schedule is… 

    Presidents Message

    The Tri V summer schedule is on the horizon with new hope that a full schedule can happen next year. The vaccination rollout is picking up steam and state restrictions are slowly being relaxed. Liz and I got our second shot today and I know of other of the older members and spouses already receiving both shots also. Hopefully everyone will soon be fully vaccinated so we can gather face to face without worries.
    The Tri V golf season will hopefully begin April 19th.
    Nick has the May open house scheduled for May 15th at Rolling Meadows see the report in this month’s paper.
    The Tri V family picnic scheduled for Sunday July 18th at Rotary park pavilion 3.
    I heard Dale Horst that is heart valve replacement was performed on March 5th and he was set to be released from the hospital March 8th. Dale is looking forward to being back to normal activities soon.

    Stay safe, Stay healthy
    JUST a REMINDER to everyone to please use the club paper, text messaging and calling list as much as possible to keep the club informed of anything happening within the Tri V family.

    President Jay Trachsel

    Thank you for all the prayers John had… 

    Thank you for all the prayers.

    John had the hernia surgery today. They were well prepared.
    On February 1 John had to have blood work done at hospital to cross match blood if may be needed for/after surgery. On February 2 oncologist gave John another iron infusion.
    February 3 was like a free day.
    Today Judy had to take John to hospital at 5:30 a.m. Judy went with him to registration and to third floor surgery. Once they called John for prep they asked Judy to leave. They texted me with the following:
    7:23 am patient in operating room
    8:11 am procedure began
    9:19 am procedure complete
    9:23 patient in recovery area
    9:34 Dr. called. Very large hernia; keep iced over weekend; take it easy over weekend.

    The oncologist said he may want to give John one more infusion next week–depends on iron level after last blood draw.

    John cannot begin his chemo treatments for four weeks after surgery; he has follow-up with surgeon on February 17.

    John saw the surgeon on February 17 and got the all clear. No lifting over 15 lbs. for the next four weeks. The next four weeks are very crucial for your healing. The hernia was twisted and stuck so the incision is about 5 inches long. John forgot to ask if he could golf–Judy told him his golf bag weights more than 15 lbs.

    John had another iron infusion with the oncologist on Feb. 12. John was scheduled to have chemo on Feb. 16 and Judy called and said the surgery was only two weeks ago and John is to receive his second Covid vaccine on Feb. 25. The oncologist agreed to put off chemo until March 1. Needed to make sure no reaction to second vaccine which John did not have any reaction.

    Thanks again–those prayers work.
