Let's get past this!!!!

It is 3:30 on Tuesday afternoon.

Lanny is done with his cataract surgery. Check. That is over.  I am glad it is over.  He may have to do his other eye in a month or so.  He sees his eye doctor in September.  It is like everything else he goes through....he bounces back like a trouper. He slept a few hours when we got home and is returning phone calls right now.

While he was in surgery, I ran to see mom in Silverdale.  She isn't happy.  She feels like she is out of the loop. Like she has no idea about what is going on. She is in pain and all they are giving her is Tylenol. The nurses are telling her nothing. So.... I got her nurse to come into her room....I looked at her medication list and she is basically on the same stuff....except amoxicillin.  She vomited yesterday after lunch. It could be the meds. I believe today was her last day on it anyway.  The nurse also told mom to ask for anything she wanted and she would get it for her!  Mom wants bars on her bed to grab on to so she can roll over.  She wants pain medication. She wants breakfast later and less of it.  Mission accomplished.  Also, I got ahold of Dr. Connie and she is going to see mom tonight after clinic. She is going to find out why no one contacted her about mom vomiting or if they contacted Dr. Vasin.  They need to be on the same page.   Lots of stuff going on makes mom uneasy.  Plus she found out today that if Medicare does not see an improvement in mom's health...they can cut her off and she will have to leave!!!!  That frightened her.  She took a drink of water after the nurse left. lol!

Tara went and visited mom yesterday! That was so sweet of her and the girls.  It made mom's day!  They brought her a pillow pet.....ladybug.  Thank you, sweetie!

I have been feeling like doo doo. The cold hit me again on Sunday afternoon and won't leave. I stayed home from work yesterday and got a different, stronger antibiotic.  I've been taking quite a bit of Nyquil lately so I can sleep without coughing!!!!  It is horrible!

Tomorrow I have a "retreat" for work to go to. It's not suppose to be a fun one....but a pretty serious one.  I pray I don't cough through the whole thing!!!!!

I tell ya, I am tired of recovery rooms, nursing homes and feeling bad.  Let's get past all of it! 

That's about it!  Hope you all have a great afternoon and week! Thanks for your prayers! xoxo
