Halleluiah he made it through Monday!!! Such a huge blessing and thank you God for answering prayers. I have said it before and they can't shut me up...it is one thing if Graham's body gives in and succumbs to the illness; it is COMPLETELY different if someone does this to him. He is still here to fight and he will not give up until the Good Lord tells him it's time.
On the Admin side, almost everything is fixed. He is still missing a med - liquid morphine, which helps him breathe during an anxiety attack. So this med is not used often, but when it's needed, IT'S NEEDED! All meds and procedures are supposed to be in place and we double check not once, but twice a day for this. However, on the care side - mistakes are STILL happening that put Graham in danger. I know the Admin are getting annoyed with us, but frankly Scarlett, I don't give a damn. His life is a little more important than your tolerance for constructive criticism. The biggest complaint that we believe might be fixed by the end of the day, is the communication between the doctors here and Dr. Rosenblatt or Huang. If this could be done, and the main Drs monitor the care he is receiving, staying here would be awesome and convenient. We can handle the nurses who drop stuff on the floor and try and use it on Graham. We love to kick ass and take names :) which sadly we do 2-3 times a day. And this is why I refuse to leave him alone.
Graham is sleeping most of the day, waking up around 1 or 2pm. This is more than usual, however he does need to recuperate from this weekend and also the past month of crappy sleep. When he does wake up - he is Perky Graham (not Grumpy Graham) and will talk, watch TV, and is active on his phone. These are things he hasn't done in quite sometime. I am glad I am up here to play with my Man. He is on IV iron now and the hope is that once his iron levels are back up, his breathing will get better. FINGERS CROSSED!
On the plus side...I have an actual bed. Now, it's a pull out couch, but IT'S A BED! It's not that God awful "chair turns in to a bed" junk. And I have a dance floor. This is just as important. Because of the large room, when my cool bed is not out, there is a large space available. And not going to lie, I use it nightly. Graham gets Coca-Cola for dinner and now they have those song lyrics on the cans. I have "drop(ped) it like it's hot," "win, win, win no matter what," and I am anxiously awaiting for tonights song.
