update
So I took off work this morning and went to the hospital. I called all the dcotors in question fired Dr. Lohr, hired Dr. Rotteschmeier, got Dr. Deak in for a consult. All of this I had to do pretending that I was my sister Cindy on the phone. why? Hippa laws. She has the power of attorny and the docs can talk to her about mom's health but noone else. She was right there when I did it, she just didn't have the nerve to do it herself. Mom is still suffering complications and they cut even more infection out today. She is weak and tired. i am still very worried but I feel better about the new doc who appears to be attentive and competant.
We spoke to the patient advocate together and she is making a report and sending it on to the powers that be int he hopsital and is asking for an ethics review....which is all completely internal for the hsopital and we are not even allowed to know the results.
She gave us the info to file a formal complaint witht he American medical Association. I have not a lot of hope that anything will come of it, but I am filing the complaint anyway. cindy is already getting all wishy washy....well mom is doing ok now so maybe we should just let it go.....ummmmm....no.
So the doctors have been switched, I am on my way back to work...when BAM...get a call from the hubby. Perhaps you saw the news story.....Biggs was sold...hubby is loosing his job.
He will get a severance, he is young, strong, reliable, I am sure he will get another job quickly....then...BAM
I get a call from the school. Justin disrupted a tour of 8th graders with profanity and is facing expulsion...great jsut great.
then I am on my way home and get a call back from the census bureau. They are hiring me parttime at $16 an hour for the census nights and weekends.
Now look at my day up to this point....is this good news or not?
