It's late I just got back to Aunt Mary's a little while a go and can't quite get to sleep yet, so here is some more info...Be sure to read the main Tuesday night post, below this one, if you haven't yet.
Trish is in Weinberg 5C -- last time she was in Weinberg 5A. We had hoped to get readmitted to 5A this time but it just didn't work out that way. 5A is kind of the MISC ward, where they take in anybody. 5C is the Leukemia ward, just Leukemics. 5D I believe are the hard tumor cancers and 5B is the bone marrow transplant ward. Trish will eventually be on 5B. After she was admitted tonight, I went over to see if any of our friends from 5A were on duty. On the way over I met Holly - Holly was one of the two nurses that helped Trish her second night in when she passed out last time. I than went over and saw Cat. Cat was the Scottish nurse who was the other one that helped Trish on that night. They both gave me big hugs and than said NO - you're not really back! Both of them droppped what they were doing and high tailed it over to 5C to see Trish -- that was great that they felt such an attachment to do that. Holly has two boys about the same age as ours and Cat would stay up talking to Trish all night when all of her patients had been tended to. These are truly special people up here.
When they checked Trish in they decided she had some sort of infection, but not sure quite what yet -- it's not a big deal, but they made me put on a gown, mask and gloves -- it made it very hot to be in her room. Usually this time of year (flu season) you just need to wear a mask.
Tomorrow morning I will head into the hospital hopefully in time for rounds and the decision on what chemo will be given, than I'll head into the Glen Burnie office to work and visit with Trish again tomorrow night. Look for the possibility of a mid-day posting tomorrow and an evening posting. Ok I am finally getting tired. Goodnight.
