I left Tim at about 9pm tonight. He is happy to be going home tomorrow. I know it sounds soon, but there is nothing we can't do for him at home that they are doing for him at the hospital. Besides, he will be relieved when the Texas Chainsaw snorer roommate is out of his range of hearing keeping him up all night. Poor man is really ill, but I have never heard a human snore quite like that before :-)
He was starting to increase with a headache and not feeling well. I got the nurse telling her I think it is time he gets Vicadin again. She said she needed to check his chart and if it was time, they can give it to him. Apparently, they like to give Vicadin every 6 hours. She came back with it in hand. Last time he had taken it was 10am - he went 11 hours with NO pain meds. AMAZING!!!! He is amazing. I love him to the moon and back and then some.
His appetite is just fine. He ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner and had a snack of a cheeseburger and fries and a smoothie. He is good.
We will need to get his staples taken out late next week, they said I can do it - I am pretty sure that is NOT going to happen, so we will make an appointment with our local doctors. Hopefully they can get something right :-) If we have any volunteers that will be in the Winchester area ten days from now, we are willing to consider them. HAHAHA
It is now 10:13 and that proverbial brick wall has just been hit - so I will be calling it a night for now. I will certainly add more tomorrow after we get home with what I am hoping to be an uneventful trip there. Love to all and sweet dreams.
