When things change, they change dramatically, so that I really don't know what the situation is anymore. Roger is like a balloon that they keep trying to inflate, but just when they think they've succeeded, down he comes again.
Yesterday he was in a very low state again. He had been vomiting in the night and was dehydrated again. They had him XRayed to see if the vomiting was caused by an abdominal blockage, but that came back clear. Now they think it could be an intermittent blockage, so the plan yesterday afternoon was to give him something to speed up bowel action to try and flush it through. He cannot stand up without feeling woozy, due to low blood pressure & dehydration I suppose. His weight has plummeted.
I spoke to the Registrar, who came to see him just before 5.00pm yesterday, who told me about the plan. I then went straight to Rob & Suze's for dinner. It was therapy for me to feed and help bath the baby.
I never know what I will find when I go in to see him at 2.00pm every afternoon, and that's the worst time of the day........waiting to enter the ward.
I'm sorry that I can't be more positive.
