Guest guest Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Hi Everyone, My husband Bob was transferred to a rehab center Wed. March 28th after a week in the hospital for a strep infection in his blood. He had a very tough two days at first, not sleeping at night, very restless and confused. Unable to feed himself for the two days. He is finally coming around a little now and able to feed himself Friday and today. He is so weak and has declined so that they are using a hoyer lift to transfer him from bed to wheelchair. Not even trying to get him up to walk or transfer with the walker, although they did do it that way in the hospital. Physical Therapy in hospital had him up and walking in the hall with the walker. This rehab center is not even trying to do that with him because he was so bad the first two days he was there. I am going in to help him eat his meal at noon each day and stay an hour or two to visit and explain about LBD to the staff. This is so hard to see how he has gone downhill the last week and a half. Keeping on keeping on. Pat M. Wife/Caregiver of Bob 75, dx PD 2003, LBD 2009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
