UPDATE:

TALKED TO HAROLD'S NURSE EARLY THIS MORNING- THE NEUROLOGIST CAME IN LATE LAST NIGHT AND TOLD HAROLD HE WOULD HAVE TO GO TO A NURSING HOME AND HAD HIM UPSET- BUT THEY DID GET HIM A SEDATIVE AND HE WAS SLEEPING WELL WHEN I CALLED.

TODAY- STEVE WILL BE UP THERE TO TALK TO THE DRS ABOUT THE TEST RESULTS- THE NURSE WOULD NOT GIVE THAT INFO OUT- AND TO START TALKING TO HAROLD ABOUT THE NURSING HOME.

I WILL START MAKING CALLS THIS MORNING AND START GETTING EVERYTHING READY FOR WHEN THEY DISCHARGE HIM.

HE WILL BE GOING TO NEWMAN- ITS AN EXCELLENT FACILITY WITH A REALLY GOOD PHYSICAL THERAPIST AND ITS SO CLOSE TO US THAT WE CAN DO HIS MEALS AND KEEP A GOOD EYE ON HIM.

I CALLED THEM YESTERDAY AND THEY HAVE A BED FOR HIM.

HE HASN'T HAD A BM SINCE FRIDAY- SO THEY NEED TO BE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THAT AND THAT MAY BE A PERMANENT THING.

THEY DID HAVE HIM UP AND SITTING IN A RECLINER LAST NIGHT AND HE SEEMED TO ENJOY IT EVEN THOUGH HE WAS SO WORN OUT.

THEY DID PULL THE IV THAT WAS PUTTING HIS SODIUM INTAKE OVER THE TOP. HE CAN HAVE HIS RITZ CRACKERS TODAY!

SO, ITS ANOTHER DAY, AND HOPEFULLY HE WON'T BE SO CRANKY ABOUT IT, BUT I DOUBT IT. IT TAKES HIM AWHILE TO GET USED TO NEW IDEAS AND EVEN THOUGH HE ALREADY KNEW HE WOULD HAVE TO GO TO A NURSING HOME NOW, ITS NOT GOING TO BE EASY FOR HIM.

THE REST OF THE WEEK WILL BE GETTING HIM MOVED AND HIS CLOTHES HERE AND MARKED SO STEVE CAN GET THEM UP THERE TO HIM AND DECIDING ON WHAT HE WILL BE TAKING WITH HIM TO THE NURSING HOME. TV AND RECLINER FOR SURE.

WE ARE GOING TO HOLD HIS APT FOR AWHILE AND SEE HOW HE DOES WITH THERAPY.

MORE LATER AS IT UNFOLDS.
