We just got home around 8pm. I'm starving.....Tony has zero appetite. Nurses say it will be about 4-6 weeks before his appetite comes back to normal. I'm sitting here blogging as dinner is cooking.
We kept getting "yes you're going home" and "no, not until your bowel movements get more solid." His diarrhea was still active up till early this morning. Which means, the C Difficile is still active. In the past 12 hours he only had one episode. However, because there was an influenza outbreak on his floor, they released several patients who were very close to discharge to avoid this spreading. Hospital says to avoid seeing anyone sick, young children and avoid malls and busy places. This afternoon they gave him magnesium and potassium via IV. And then we went home.
We are all exhausted in this house. It's been a long 15 days. Tomorrow we will rest.
Thanks again everyone for all your messages and best wishes.
Please call us before visiting. Thx.
