DH came home Tuesday,

He is getting stronger by the day.

His sister came in Weds and Thursday to help out.

Today the intake nurse is coming, we expect to get PT, OT, a bath person and home health ??? (??)

I'll find out today.

I'm glad that he is home and we are mostly ok :roll: :D

THANK YOU all

DH is having a very hard time finding things that he can eat.

he is able to eat malt o meal and things like that,

He is trying soups, but finding soup that is mostly liquid and less salt is hard.

He was able to get some eggs down and puddings and jello.

one of his Dr's are changing a couple of his meds hoping that that will help

Part of the problem may be from the tube that was down his throat for several days. He has lost most of his sense of taste,

He uses oxygen at night and was feeling that no oxygen was coming out.

a retired neighbor was a nurse and told me to hold it in water and see if there are bubbles, there are so DH feels better about it.

He is getting very tired.

Yesterday I found a new blister on his leg, the nurse was in today and she is hoping that the blister doesn't break, DH must put his leg up, but it's a struggle to keep reminding him to do it.

I'm also having a hard time getting him to take his pills.

The nurse suggested Gluerna so I got some today, it's up to him

Today I'm having trouble getting him to put his let up, the blister isn't any smaller, praying that it doesn't burst.

Also having trouble getting him to take his pills.

I did cook him a breakfast of malt o meal and a couple of eggs.

he had threatened to call the police on me again, he is hoping to have me hauled away.

I'm in tears.

apparently, he called his sister, she didn't hear the phone but called back, he told her that everything was ok now.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
