So it is after 10 pm and I have just returned from the hospital. I left after Larry finally had his CT Scan of the abdomen and head. They began prepping him this morning anticipating it to take place early in the day. It was a crazy long day for Mom and Larry waiting for it to happen. Mom and Larry were looking frazzled when I arrived about 8 pm.
Here is the kicker - I greatly question the competency of tonight's staff working with Larry. At best they are simply slow as molasses and not very friendly. I told mom to make sure she had their names and wrote down that number you call if you have complaints. Just in case we needed it. So if you are awake and get this before 7 am Monday - please say a prayer for Mom, Larry and their nurses.
As you might guess things have been delayed- not sure when the PEG (stomach feeding tube) will be able to be inserted. Not sure when Larry will be released. Tomorrow the 7 days for holding his room at the nursing home will be up.
Mom's favorite doctor will be there yet tomorrow before being off for four days. So praying for things to progress as needed tomorrow. Praying for wisdom of doctors. And please pray for peace and encouragement and whatever other good things you can think of for Mom and Larry who are growing weary of hospital life.
