We're HOME!!!!!!!
Yes yes yes....we are home! Ok. Here is what happened. Well...read the post before this & you will know, but he didn't have to have surgery. THANK YOU GOD! Today was our last day at the hospital. He was up & moving by 7 am. They took him down to remove the temp. cast (splint) to put on the permanent one. Then they had him scheduled for a 10:30 am CT scan to make sure nothing moved. *That* got pushed back an hour & 1/2. Then they had someone cancel & they took him down at 11 am. We didn't get back to the room until 12:30. (Oh, BTW, he hasn't eaten anything since 9 pm the night before) *Finally* at about 1:30 pm they called & said he could eat. He ate, we had to wait for the doctor's so we could find out what is going on, he needed PT for the crutches & get a wheelchair for him. Ok, got him up for the PT & he went went white. Blood pressure dropped & we figure its from being drugged all day, no sleep & laying in bed since Monday night. I had to get some paperwork filled out so we can get a temp hand. sticker so that when I have him in the car I can park where I have the room to move him around to get into his wheelchair. No weight on the leg for a min. of six weeks. Any questions? :)
