Good morning. Hoping for a lazy day. Will need to force Mr. D to do his exercises, he's slacking a lot. Need to get his leg muscles built back up. I'm not nagging him but have explained what would happen to him if something happened to me. Hoping that motivates him. We shall see. :lol:

Good morning. Still posting because I have no one to talk to or blow off steam. Soo we had a setback yesterday. Mr. D's legs swollen, and he can't straiten it or put weight on it. Trying to figure out how to get him in the car. I know I won't be able to do it by myself. Guess it's time to get to know my neighbors. The drugs he's on is to make his blood clot, because his body doesn't make enough clotting factors. So anytime anything happens were to go get checked out for blood clots. My thinking is to call an ambulance but Mr. D dosent want to pay. But if it turns out to be a clot it could cause him to lose his leg or worse.

Good morning. I did have the ambulance pick Mr. D. up and they did admit him. But was kept in the ER till 5:30 this morning waiting on a room. When I left at 8 they were giving him factor 7 injections every 3 hours. This morning when I talked with him, he was getting breakfast an an iv.

Mr. D's in good spirits. Hes on the Cancer Institute floor. Their taking good care of him. They have his leg wrapped up and are giving him pain pills. Still geting factor 7 injections every 3 hours to help his blood clot. But his factor 8 red count went down again. So no idea how long.

Good morning. Today's agenda is to give Mr. D. a shave. Could be fun. :lol: Good news is their going to start weening him off the factor 7 injections. If his numbers stay up, He will be able to come home or go to rehabilitation center for Pt and OT for 2 weeks. I'm hoping for the rehabilitation center. Only because I'm not able to lift, pull and other things he'll need till they build his muscles up.
