| well yesterday was a good day on all accounts, jack still has a banging headache and is worried about drinking too much as he is on a fluid restriction, one nurse told him 600mls a day, thats not even 2 cans of pop! one told him 1500 mls! so he is unsure so is being very careful but then ends up with a bad head cause ha hasnt had enough, so today we are going to find out properly what he can have, its a long 4 hour stint on the machine today, they say 4 hours, but as there are no time slots on the proper dialysis ward we are having to go to the renal ward so we can be sat for an hour before the get him hooked uo to the machine, quite rightly so though, they have to look after their patients first, and that is how it should be, we just have to be patient. so taday he should have his dialysis, if it takes its usual pattern then he will be shattered for the rest of the day then he should be ok for the weekend, then its back to it on monday, and i am at work then so its just seeing what his time slots are for taking him and picking him up, hopefully soon he can drive himself home, but for now he feels dizzy and sick and washed out afterwards so its not safe to drive home, but they have said that should get better as his body gets use to it. so we hope it does to, for his sake. so i will go and get ready for the hospital now, he has no buzzer on his bad,so i am his buzzer when he is on the machine if he feels unwell, lets hope i dont fall asleep hey! |
