Through My Eyes
|
Playing Catch Up It seems like forever since I've at a moment to sit down and write anything. Everything is going well. I'm down 70 pounds since my gastric bypass surgery in December. Other than being a little anemic I'm perfectly healthy. Dad has stabilzed too, he's in great health according to the doctor. Mom is pretty much the same, although she keeps losing blood and we can't seem to figure out where exactly she's bleeding. The doctor is on top of it, however the nursing home staff doesn't think so. We had our 3 month care conference meeting earlier this week, of course it went like it always does. They claim they are trying to do everything for mom that they can, but the doctor just doesn't seem to respond to their requests. What it truly boils down to is that they want to dictate what meds mom gets and we feel that is better left to the doctor. So instead of us being the bad guys this time, it's her doctor who's not doing his job and according to them we should change her doctor. That won't happen, I'd keep him just to piss them off at this point. |
