This past Monday the doctor told us that Dad needed a blood transfusion. They told us he would go get the blood then come right back. He was at the hospital for 3 days. After he had the 3 pints of blood he needed 2 IV's of magnesium. After all that they brought in someone from wound care to look at the cancer/radiation area. He was not happy because the last time this happened they moved all his stuff from his room at rehab. I called them and asked that if they had to move his things that they should call me so I can do it. I got to rehab before Dad and was told they moved is room. I was sooo mad. They hadn't moved his things though. I did that before Dad came in. He was still mad though.
He seems much better since his "oil change". He re-starts radiation again tomorrow. He came home today for the afternoon. Once again Dot followed him all around. I went to the store and Dad said while I was gone Dot kept coming in his room and looking at him.
As for me....I'm tired. Some of the people at rehab know me now and seem really nice. The hot water heater stopped working but it's about 106-111 degrees everyday so cold showers are fine.
Dot seems to be getting used to it out here. I couldn't find her a plastic baby pool. I got a one ring blow up pool. Today was the first time she would go in it. Now she's asleep on the bed snoring.

I'm glad the "oil change" helped a bit, I wish I could be out there to help you! I love your dog...she cracks me up...
ReplyDeleteYeah Dot's a good girl. She always makes me laugh. I don't know what to do for Dad. He's feeling tired again already. I need to talk to his doctors...again.
