Eviction

 Friday night Mike was back on the job and did a bunch of stuff for me before I realized I was not his charge.  Later he did trade for me and as a result last night was comfortable as hospital stays go   

Sat AM my Dr says Im stable, time to go home.  I can’t sit up due to back pain, can’t stand, and still haven’t eaten much.  Finally they got me soft and bland food at lunch.  The butternut purée was good, the greens were ok, and the chicken ground up at least edible.  I’m way off protein.  The one other thing I really liked was sweet potatoes a couple days ago.  

They found me a rehab (no no no lol) near home but it’s been 4 hours and here I sit.

Amen for Mike

 So my call button wasn’t working after six tries I called the emergency room. Mike appeared care of everything including the freaking alarm that has been going off for an hour and a half. He also knew that they are going to admit me so stay tuned. He gave me his phone number!   I like Mike.  

Although admitted I never got a room outside the ER.   Why do they keep the rooms sub freezing?   Brrrr 

On the 8th they had disabled calling the ER… 

Update

 Well my kidney or bladder infection got 3x antibiotics they said it was nasty.   I got moved to a COVID room but not kicked out.  Still no interest in food.  Not much to say.

New life events

 So add COVID positive test to the list.   Super low hemoglobin so transfusions. 

Fucking constant bP test   Hate it   

After eight hours I got some jello and pudding cups.   My blood sugar was crashing.   

And a bladder infection.  

And low blood pressure.

At least they are not sending me home tonight.  

A gallon of blood

 So we (PR and I) tried to head out to DHRs Er today.  I was able to get to the front door but had to give up.  Eventually I had EH call an ambulance.   

So for family who asked my o2 stats are at 100%

I saw a Dr at intake then got to an ER room. After sitting unseen for hours the Dr made it and yikes so many tests.  A gallon of blood it seemed, X-ray,  COVID test Yoda yada.   

Transfusions in my future.  A bolus of liquid for dehydration.  Who knows what else.
