Unplanned Hospital Stay

I have been fighting this for over 2 years. After awhile it gets quit tiresome. On Wednesday night we made a unplanned visit to the hospital because I had thrown up. They kept me over night and hydrated me. By morning they had pumped me so full of fluids my face was puffy. At 10 A. M. the nurse came in and said I was free but they wanted me on home I.V fluids ( I really hate home fluids) I have to carry around this big bag of fluids everywhere i go. But it meant I got to go home which I desperately wanted. So we are waiting around and 1 rolls around then it turns to 2 then to 3 then to 4 and finally to 5. We are getting a little antsy to get out by now. Finally the coordinating nurse comes in and tells us that are insurance denied the order and refused to pay so they had to find a place that would mix them and insurance would cooperate. So long story short it takes 2 hours for the fluids to be mixed and they had to come from moline to Peoria. So the doctor came in and said we could just go home and the fluids would come to the house directly. So then we had to have home heath care come and hook me up and take my blood pressure and temperature and listen to me breath. Trust me its not fun. So as I lay around listening to Kari Jobe I feel very grateful to have doctors and parents and friends and family who care. Tomorrow will be our THIRD attempt to leave for Memphis. This will be course 9 and we have a full year from right now. I also have to have an MRI, CT scan, and Echo EKG when I am down there. On the plus side the temperature in Memphis this week is in the 60's with lows of 50's!! Bring out the Capri's!! I still have to pack and I have home heath coming to de access me which just means pull the need out of my port. Well I will try to blog again on Wednesday.
