Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Thanks to both of you for your love and concern...loooong weekend has been rough. Glenn is all filled up again...spoke to surgeon yesterday and told him the pump obviously is not working. Have appt. to get Glenn drained at 1 p.m. and over to see surgeon for directions on how to manually pump....and to see why it's not working on its own when Glenn is lying down.... Hopefully it's been done surgically correct and hopefully it is not a malfunctioning pump!!!! Grrrrr.... Cipro antibiotic is giving him diarrhea...big time...at least that's what I think it is. And he's having trouble sleeping...will ask dr. about this, too!!! Another vacation day for me...at the drs. and hospital, but what can I do?? Hopefully, my boss will fire me....fat chance!!! Lots of hugs and prayers, Donelle Caregiver to Glenn In a message dated 9/6/2005 11:26:44 AM Eastern Standard Time, karima1@... writes: Yes, of course, a home care nurse. Wil they come???? Karima Re: Re: How Is Glenn?/ Donelle Sure hope things are going better for Glenn. Hope that pump starts working right and the you have the home care nurse to come in and pump the machine especially if Glenn won't do it. I guess we would all be grouchy and bitchy if we were going through what he has to these days. I know it is rough on you to have to deal with it.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Just a quick thought, maybe if they drain him the 'old way', it will kinda like 'primp the pump'?? and get it going?? Anyway, lots of prayers~~~~~~~ nancy Re: Re: How Is Glenn?/ Donelle Sure hope things are going better for Glenn.
