Tuesday
El Milagro: TODAY I ROLL IN HERE AT 4:30, HAVING LOST TRACK OF TIME AT WORK AGAIN. I’M TYPING IN ALL CAPS CAUSE I’M NOW A REGHT-HANDED LEFTY… SINCE MY RIGHT HAND LOOKS LIKE I’M WEARING A BOXING GLOVE. I DECIDED TO USE ALL CAPS (ALA STEVE BEWSEY) INSTEAD OF NO CAPS (ALA ee cummings) CAUSE IT’S EASIER THAN TRYING TO USE THE SHIFT BAR ALL THE TINE.
ROSIE THE TECH STICKS ME.
CAROL THE TECH MOTHERS ME: SETTING UP ALL MY PARAPHENALIA AND EVEN ROOTING AROUND IN MY BAG FOR SOME CANDY AND PLACING IT ON THE CHAIR-TABLE WHERE I CAN REACH IT.
A NEW NURSE GUY DOES MY NURSING EVAL.
ROWDER THE DOC COMES BY FOR THE DRIVE BY AND I TELL HIM ABOUT MY APPT WITH MORITZ AND ASK IF HE’S OK WITH THAT…”SURE; IT’S ONE LESS PATIENT ON MT LIST!” HE QUIPS. HE IS ALSO CURIOUS ABOUT MY HAND AND I TELL HIM IT WAS A SLICE JOB FOR DUPY’S DISEASE AND HE KNOWS THE CONDITION AND MAKES A NOTE IN MY RECORD.
JEN THE DIETICIAN STROLLS UP AND MAKES SOME JOKES… AND THEN GIVES ME MY CURRENT LABS… PHOS IS BACK TO 4.2, WHICH IS REGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF TE ACCEPTABLE RANGE OF 3.5 – 5.5.
SHERRY THE SOCIAL WORKER COMES UP AND WE DISCUSS THE ONGOING BILL SITUATION FROM MY TRIP TO DC LAST FALL AND MY BP GOES UP TO 151/75 JUST TALKING TO HER ABOUT IT… SHE IS ON MY SIDE AND VOLUNTEERS TO CALL TONYA ABOUT THE WHOLE THING. I THANK HER!
I AM SOMEWHAT WORN OUT TODAY… SO I AM GONNA CRASH OUT FOR A NICE SNOOZE AND WRITE ON SOMETIME LATER…
ONWARD THRU THE HAZE.
Notes: In at 78.5 and out at 75.5 Kgs.
