Just got Dan's IV med started and tucked him back in to sleep for a couple of hours before we need to leave for the clinic.
Infections are getting better according to the doc yesterday. We had our Diabetic Education yesterday. In case I hadn't posted this Dan's blood sugar is very high and it is due to the meds he has
to be on. They have him on oral meds for the blood sugar and hopefully that will stabilize the blood sugar. They believe
after he gets off the steroids it will level back out.
He had a pretty tough day yesterday just said he had the blah's. Top it all off we had to wait about an hour to talk to the diabetic education person and when we got to her office it was a total mess-- Dan or me felt very uncomfortable in the room. Plus she hadn't even looked over his chart when we got in her office. Her finger nail polish was about 1/4 on --just not a good experience... so you can bet I will be reporting this.
The medication I have to give him at home is starting to effect his kidneys so we are backing off of
it a little. All in all I think things are going well-- Dan is just having a hard adjusting to what his new "normal" will be.
Much love to everyone!
The "new normal", boy have I heard, or read, that phrase a lot lately. Here is hoping the "new normal" is not too different from the "old normal". Keep up the good fight!
