Rough Early Morning But........

Tweet

It Is nice to be back home but I almost had to take Tony back to "a" hospital. See, Tony got AFIB when he was trying to quit smoking last year, the patches made his heart race and flutter, he was on blood thinners but the oncologist took him off those because his blood was to thin. Till the surgery the heart rate was fine using a small dose of medication to keep it under control. That was the hold up at the hospital, but that is not why I almost went back to an E.R. the problem was he had not had a bowel movement in 4 days but was encouraged to eat solid foods for the last 3 days, but we ordered prune juice for 2 days and nothing happened. Just hours before the check out "Tony" asked for an enema and it did nothing. At home he just went to sleep, however, I stayed up and took a hot bath, started a new book and winded down. just before midnight I fell asleep. 3 am Tony woke me said he needed oxygen, I cut it on and set it low at 1 liter. Got him calm and went back to bed as he was drifting back to sleep in the recliner. 6:30 am he woke dying with his bowels and got me up, I got him an enema and a little while later he woke me again saying it did not work and I might have to take him to the E.R. Now I am tired of this foolishness and I went to the medicine stock and chose a delicious grape flavored bottles of Magnesium Citrate , he drank it. Then I watched him drink water after and I told him to slow down on that water, he puked, not much but still he puked and now he is in a panic. Heart rate up to 149. I get him calm and his heart rate back down, he leaned back in his recliner and he fell asleep, I went back to bed. Leaving the bedroom door open so I can hear him. Around noon he gets up and I hear him run to the bathroom. I stay in bed till 2 pm because I knew what I gave him worked, plus my body just would not wake up. He made his own breakfast, a blueberry yogurt. I gave him a later lunch of sugar free chocolate pudding and now he is sleeping. Sometimes men just need to listen to women about how to make the body get back to working, even the doctor said " women get up and go, heal faster than men." How was your morning?
