Of course, they will be monitoring him for the next 24 hours to ensure that he doesnt start bleeding again, or...- efirdj

Mornin' all. Mrs E really did come home last night! Nothing new to report with the FIL... He'll be in surgery later today for the endoscopy and cauterization attempt. I'll update after Mrs E lets me know how it went. Tomorrow is a big day! Assuming all goes well with FIL, it's our start...- efirdj

Hooray for nice weather and scenic routes! Boo for snotty customers that need a swift kick in the pants. Just got another update from Mrs E. The operation time scheduled for the FIL tomorrow is for an endoscopy to try to locate the exact place he's bleeding. IF they locate it, and IF its...- efirdj

We all are... Part of my problem is the fact they can't really do anything except play with his meds. His blood pressure was down to 120/70 or so last night when I went to visit. And thats a lot better than the 170+/90+ it was a few days ago. If they can just stop that daggumed nosebleed...- efirdj

Good morning folks. No change in FIL. He had his hemoglobin checked again last night, but MIL hasnt told us the results yet. It dropped far enough to warrant giving him two units of blood, and his numbers have been slowly dropping for a few days. Mrs E looked at his chart last night and saw...- efirdj

Time to go get kids, take them to my dad's, then head back into Charlotte to go see the FIL, kick his .... if he's still being an azz to the medical staff, call him a few choice words until he calms down (he's not very happy at the moment... and he's the stereotypical crotchety curmudgeon... it...- efirdj

My hair was almost always a short cut. Anything from a high and tight or crew cut, out to maybe three inches at the longest. I hate long hair... mine tends to curl up after it gets a few inches long. Only if I need to ignore it louder! Seriously, I know I need it. My only saving grace is...- efirdj

Thankfully, Kat is a "girly" girl. And for the moment, she's very self conscious about how much skin shows. She is mortified if she looks in a mirror and sees cleavage. *sigh* I know that will pass in the near future though.- efirdj

Good morning Posse. How about some good news this morning?? I havent had much of that lately... My Provari is back in action! I didnt even have to put it in a bag of rice! The bad news, the doc couldnt do their "last option" procedure. In that last post, I said they were worried about...- efirdj

Oh, and I had some :censored: kid (not mine) spill water onto my Provari yesterday... It threw an E4 code. I've had it sitting in my car on the dash without a battery, hoping the extreme heat will evaporate all of the water out of it. Yeah. It's been a WONDERFUL week...- efirdj

Afternoon Posse. Two things. One, Ortho doctor wont give me any more corticosteroid injections for my shoulder. Now, my one and only option is surgery. Naturally, I can't afford the time off to actually undergo surgery. Bleh. Two, FIL hasnt gotten better. They left a balloon like thing...- efirdj

And good evening all. Just checking in to relay another update on the FIL. Somehow he got a nose bleed Friday afternoon. And with all the new blood thinners he's on, it didnt want to stop. He ended up going back to the ER and then got admitted into the hospital. After 24 hours of his...- efirdj
