...or Fibro day....to be honest, I am not even sure. All I know is that I am still feeling wiped out and not matter how much I seem to sleep, I'm not at ALL refreshed? UGH!!
As for my Mom, she is still in the hospital, even though we all had hoped and thought she would be home by now? I feel so badly that she is not bouncing back and told her nurse today that I don't feel like she is improving nearly as much as they seem to think? Not sure how much she is really telling them versus me, but she still is not up to talking on the phone, having visitors, eating or pushing herself to be up, shower and move about...all of which are something the insist will help her heal faster. She can't seem to do it? My Mom is still extremely fatigued, still having nausea at times and is just not doing, what I think any of us expected at this point, from all were we told and given to read. I did see
one day, when she was up early, showered and walking, but then yesterday she was worse again and is having issues with her oxygen level, so she's back on oxygen, at times and may need it a while longer?
When I work up with a scratchy throat, I felt it was best for ALL, if I stayed home and I did call her early to make sure that would be okay and that she did not need me there. The plan when I left yesterday, was for her to continue on today and be discharged HOME tomorrow. Now, it seems that they may want her to go to Rehab and for a while today, it almost sounded like she had to go today? But, after I gave up on waiting for her to let me know....I called her Nurse and was told, she is NOT going anywhere today? Tomorrow....I MUST get myself back there, so I can figure out WHAT is really going on. UGH.....
So, I took an afternoon nap, extra Vitamin C and Zinc and will be back in bed early tonight and HOPE I wake up feeling MUCH better. I also HOPE we do NOT get the snow, they think we may...as I really must get up to the hospital. Luckily, being on the coast, I think we should be spared? PLEASE DO NOT SNOW!!
I need some
GOOD and HAPPY news and let's ALL hope it comes tomorrow and that maybe, just maybe, she was confused and may still be able to come HOME?
I hope all goes well for your Mom, but I'd be concerned too if she hadn't shown improvement by now. I wonder if she's having allergic reactions to pain meds? If they give me anything other than tylenol for pain, I'm constantly nauseated, and unable to eat, move or keep my eyes open. Drive safe and take care and thx for the update!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for the disappointing news you got..take are of yourself so when she can handle certain things you can be there to help. Go to bed early!
