Subject: RE: Art Thieme General Update thread -June 2012 From: katlaughing Date: 10 Jun 12 - 11:24 AM In the email this morning: Hello All, Just an update on Dad with some good news. His infection has been brought under control again. With this, his mental faculties have mostly returned. We're heading over tomorrow (Sunday) with the grandkids for a visit. He is at a point where a phone call would be welcome, but please try to keep them somewhat spaced apart. While he is doing much better, he is still often confused. Do not be surprised if he is not as coherent as he was the last time you may have talked to him, and he still has some odd interpretations on things. We have an appointment with his neurologist this coming week, but I do not expect any great insights into his condition. Still, we'll see what they have to offer based on the tests that have been done in this past month. His sense of humor is coming back to, but he sometimes gets frustrated when he can't remember the line he wanted to use. The best medicine right now is love, friends and family which he has in abundance. He does much better during the day than at night, so calls during the day are going to be the best. Physical therapy has been working with him too helping both with motor skills and cognitive thought and articulating those thoughts. Thank you all for your patience through this. It is hard to know what to say when I don't know what is happening myself. He includes their phone number. If anyone needs it, please PM me. Thanks, kat |

Subject: RE: Art Thieme in hospital & @ home better? May 2012 From: GUEST,hg Date: 02 Jun 12 - 10:54 PM That sounds like a bad UTI. Elderly people get delusional from them. He'll be okay when they get him over it. Good luck Art! Love, harpgirl |

Subject: RE: Art Thieme in hospital & @ home better? May 2012 From: GUEST,Gerry Date: 01 Jun 12 - 02:51 AM I sang Handful Of Songs at Snadra-in-Sydney's folk club last weekend, introducing it as a song I learned from Art Thieme's recording. If I had known about his condition, I would have said a little more about him, but I think most of the regulars know well who he is and would wish him all the best for a quick and complete recovery. |

Subject: RE: Art Thieme in hospital & @ home better? May 2012 From: GUEST Date: 30 May 12 - 10:30 PM Oh no! Larry Hanks & Deborah Robins here. We're on tour, and were just driving through Illinois yesterday, wondering if we should try and stop by. Doesn't sound like a good time. PLEASE send Art our dearest love and every good healing thought. Tell him, I'm singing "Master of the Sheepfold" at every performance I can, and always attribute it to learning it from his singing. PLEASE let us know if there's anything we can do to help. With greatest despair, Love from Art's friends, Deborah & Larry Hanks 510-282-6252 bassclarinetrobins@gmail.com |

Subject: RE: Art Thieme in hospital & @ home better? May 2012 From: bbc Date: 30 May 12 - 05:09 PM So sorry to hear this! I have heard, in relation to my mom, that urinary tract infections can often lead to disoriented behavior in the elderly. Right now, she's in the hospital with bacteremia (E. coli) & possible sepsis. Outcome is unknown, as of yet. Barbara |
