Poor David. I shouldn't be laughing at you. So I'm laughing with you. (Had a sleepless baby night last night, feel your pain like whoa.)
How close are you to having the bedroom set up and ready?
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Because books.
I called mom and in twisting to answer the phone, she was in so much pain she couldn't talk to me. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck a duck. Fuck.
Oh, Suzi. Can she ask the nurses to give her more pain meds? Or put her on a pump? I'm sorry, honey. Recuperation from that kind of surgery is a hard road.
David's Brain: Serpentine!
Are they still coming home on Saturday?

She had been on a pump, but her central line leaks so the meds weren't getting in her system, so that went away. Getting other pain meds can happen and hopefully she will ask the nurse for some. I'm not there to help with that and it is frustrating.

We don't like to see our humans hurting. No we don't.

Well as long as you're laughing with me.
Are they still coming home on Saturday?
Yes. That is the plan.

What's with all the crap-ass medical equipment anyway? We had so many faulty telemetry monitors and missing cords and whatnot. I'm thinking that hospitals run hard on the profit line don't maintain and upgrade like they used to.

I tried to bury my head beneath the pillow and get back to sleep towards the end, but then the alarm started going off, so I was doomed.

I hope they get her some effective meds soon, and she feels better.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Hey, whatcha doing this weekend? If I'm not helping the Zmayhems, wanna go to the petting zoo? (That's for Juliana too)
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! HEE!!!! insert other sounds of slightly maniacal laughter here
I would love to go to the petting zoo. I would also love to go see JZ this weekend. I don't know that either of those are happening. Well, the JZ thing might, because IIRC, the hospital isn't too far away from GG Park where I have been volunteered to work the WF booth for the AsthmaWalk this Saturday.
Seriously, people. I'm an admin because I'm lazy and I wanted time to do theater. This job ain't supposed to be that high-powered. I'm working 45+ hour weeks at this point, and that's before I add in working the entire weekend at the restaurant.

Then they should put in a new one! God, it just makes me so angry -- my mom has been chronically (and sometimes dangerously) ill with lupus since I was a kid, and for every fabulous nurse, doctor, and hospital she's been in, she's had trouble like this. Fighting for what you need when you're the patient, and in pain, is so difficult. And a lot of doctors don't make clear that you're perfectly entitled to ask questions and advocate on your own behalf.
Sorry. It's a button of mine. I hope she can get some relief soon, Suzi. And big hugs for you.
