i like that... thanks for sharing!
I have been following Russ's journey since this weekend when I left. Every day I check to see how things are progressing. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Your thought for today is so reassuring.
I do think you being a nurse does make this more difficult because you analyze everything.
I know, my mom was admitted to MHO on Tuesday night and I know too much and I am thinking how about this and how about that, unlike my sister who is not a nurse. She takes everything at face value.
I thought of your true patience and kindness yesterday as I sat with my mom. The hours I was with her went so slowly and I think of how you sit with Russ each day sometimes all day long and how long the day must be for you. You are truly an amazing lady and someone I look up to. A great example of the daughter I want to be.
I will be checking in later to see if the bowel regime works. I am going to get in the shower and get over to the hospital.
Give Russ a message...
It's half pass kissing time, time to kiss again... and give him a kiss from me.
Your son's poster is good and timely advice for you, Nancy. I hope you can keep it in mind.
Please let us know how Russ is doing.
lynne,
thanks for taking time to read my blog. i'm sorry to hear about your mom. you both will be in my thoughts and prayers.
russ is in good hands here but he misses his "special nurse" i will give him a kiss from you.
it's 1:30 and still not BM. dr. Q. ordered another set of x-rays to see if anything has changed and another enema. will keep you posted after we learn the results of the x-ray. thanks for all your continued thoughts and prayers.
Oh no, no, I think you are wrong! God needs my help, you see, he is in Heaven, and well I am down here, on Earth, Yada, yada, yada.
At least I crack myself up!
Boy, it sure seems that there are allot of us in a 'pickle' this week, or in the Hospital, and it seems a good 'poop' would help everyone feel better!
I am sure it would me!
Keeping Russ & you in my thoughts & prayers, every day, Nancy!
Love the poster.
I came here hoping for good news. Guess this means I will have to go get back on my knees. Will do that right now.
Nancy, when my mom was here at home she hadn't had a BM and the docs kept trying enemas and suppositories and laxatives and nothing worked.
My aide was Russian and had been a nurse there. She told me that in Russia they used a lot of "digital stimulation and manual removal." So finally she and I did that.
It was pretty awful but my mom was instantly relieved.
Praying for a good result for you.
