Pressure Sore..

Well Jons pressure sore is still bad..ive been WAITING for the home health nurse to atleast call to make an appt with jon to do a skin treatment..no calls yet..i called his dr's office and they called to see what was taking so long..of course the dr's office said the other office would "call them back" but no call backs have been made..so AS USUAL i have to be PROACTIVE and take matters into my own hands...so i called the other office myself..and have made it all the way thru the nursing scheduler and then come to find out they arent planning on coming till Sunday!?? what on earth!?!? sunday!!?? So i have her on the phone now and said he has a stage 2 pressure sore and waiting till Sunday to do a woundcare treatment is probably not a good idea!! so im on hold..we'll see what the outcome will be..okay she said they just had a "cancellation" for tomorrow.. FIGURES! so a nurse will call between 8-10am to pick a time that day..okay on to the next thing!!

I feel bad that he has to stay in bed ALL day again..

Well my 2 older girls have dental appts at 2pm today..so i'll be around the corner with them doing that while becca is napping and anna will just hang out with jon..

On a positive note- jon is now able to feel on his left foot which is amazing and he can feel on parts of his left leg- he has had NO feeling whatsoever on his left leg before so this is quite encouraging!
