Weekend Update

Lisa was pretty sleepy Saturday.  Billy and Brenda went to see her and I don't think she woke up the whole time they were there.   Her central line had to be changed to a new site and before the doctor got there to change it, she woke up in a very agitated state.  When we got back there she was yelling and trying to pull her nose tube out - it was crazy.  My guess is that the pain medicine she is on at home is a higher amount than what she is on in the hospital, so maybe it was some withdrawal or something making her act crazy.  We waited in the hall while they tried to get her settled down.  By the time we got back in there, she was restrained and in dream world.  They had to give her some ativan (sp?) to get her to stop pulling at her tubes.  YIKES.  I would not want to be a nurse!

This morning she was better, you could tell she was tired, and an understandable degree of grouchiness.  She is so tired of being sick.  She can only have ice chips and popsicles until they get her stomach problem figured out, but she seemed ok with that - it is certainly better than nothing.  They did another scan of her stomach yesterday and I think we might hear something about that tomorrow.
