Another afternoon at the hospital
My brother-in-law was to be released from the hospital today at around noon so, I went to the hospital at 11:30am. The Dr. who did the surgery came in and ok'd him to go to the nursing home for a few days to recuperate. His regular Dr. had told him that he would get everything set up and signed yesterday afternoon. The hospital had no orders to release my bil so, they contacted his Dr. He asked for reports to be sent to him and we waited 2-1/2 hours for him to send them back. Then, we found out that his Dr. had not made any arrangements for my bil to go to the nursing home. The hospital had more communication with the Dr., the case workers, etc. and they decided at 4 pm, that they would keep my bil one more day at the hospital because he was not able to care for himself. The Hospital is to call me tomorrow if he is to be released.
Spending almost 6 hours at the hospital caused me to miss a 2pm piano concert I was to do at a local nursing home so, I had to call them and reschedule.
I am also trying to get off the antidepressant I have been taking. I have been doing the slow step down procedure my Dr. instructed me to do in 2005. I was doing well then and then my son was killed in July of 2005 and I had to go back on the anti-depressant again.
I am doing so so. I am having jitters and nervous spells but, I am dealing with them the best I can. Tomorrow will be the 5th day without anything. If I can get through this nervous times and not have the weeping times, I will make it again.
