Late this afternoon, Heidi was release from her hospital room. She had three roommates while recovering.
The nurse release her with (10) different types of pain medication. Yes that is ten. The nurse even said to make sure we don't lose some of the presciption because they are worth at least $300 dollars each in the street of San Francisco.
Heidi was feeling good last Friday that they removed the epidural and catheter. However, within about an hour she started to feel the surge of pain again. So on Saturday and Sunday, the pain doctors tried to figure out the best way for Heidi to manage her pain.
By Monday morning, the pain doctors finally came up with the correct combintaion of ten different types of oral medication for managing the pain.
When I came for Heidi at 3:30pm, Heidi was asleep. The nurse had a little difficulty waking her up, so she lowered the one of the medicine from 1,500 mg down to 1,000 mg (i think that is metric for milligram).
Wells that all folks, that is my last log entry for Heidi.
Last notes: Thank you to Grammie for watching the three boys when i went to work and while i visited Heidi. And while Heidi was gone, Silas grew up and is now able to open our fence's gate and he whispers to my ear.
And thank you to the folks whose been bringing dinners and for the folks who watch the three boys (and gave grammie a short break), and thank you to the ladies that clean our home.
Last log entry for Heidi,
Lawrence
