  • No Update Yet

    TALES FROM THE BRAT FARM

    No update yet from the Boy on Bratfink.  He tried to call me when I was already at the hospital, to get xrays of my feet supposedly.  But, when we get there, what do I find?  The orthopedic doctor has decided the vascular doctor can take charge now.  He did all this without consulting ME.  When I asked why he had ordered xrays of my feet, her answer was *I don't know*.  I told her he had best be ready for me to see him once these stitches had all healed because the problems with my feet were NOT over and they were definitely BONE related. 

    I called and left a message for the Boy to call me when he came home to take care of the animals but, if he's worried or concerned, he won't check his messages until MAYBE when he gets home late tonight when they make him leave the ICU.  I know I can't call the hospital for information because, like me, Bratfink only wants HER and the Boy to know what's going on.  She (or he) will disclose what she wants.  There are, I believe, two hospitals in her town and one she didn't like but I don't remember the name of it....dammit.  I have no place to go tomorrow so I will do a few calls and at least find out which hospital she is in and if she is still in ICU.

    I imagine the HH nurse will be calling tomorrow and show up to change my bandages.  Their visits will probably end soon since I am going to be going into HBO therapy for two hours a day, five days a week.  That's supposed to start on this Wednesday but I haven't spoken to Belinda so I'm not sure.  I will call her tomorrow, too, to make sure that was set up right.

    We grabbed sandwiches (Whopper Jr's) and onion rings at Burger King on our way home.  For dinner, I ate an herb chicken dinner from the freezer (with mashed potatoes and veggies).  After that, I fell asleep for a couple hours before the phone woke me up.  It was the Beast's Cousin from Florida calling.  I heard the Beast telling all about what had been going on with me the past couple of weeks. 

    I will wait and see if I hear from the Boy tonight or if he calls me around the same time tomorrow.  I'll do an update then on Bratfink for all of you interested.  Love you all.  Early bedtime for me tonight.  Going to take my pain pill and wait for it to kick in.  Be good.
