Please pray we will get the decision on a mattress from the insurance company this week!!
No worker turned up at 10:30am again today so I could not go to church. I cannot talk to scheduling until the office opens tomorrow but I will try once again to get this straightened out. Last week the girl promised she would put on my chart that the 10:30 Sunday time could not be changed. But the worker arrived for an 11 - 2pm shift. I don't really need one for 2 hours if I am not going to church. She was new so I could not just run out and arrive at church 15 minutes late.
Please pray that they will schedule Sundays properly so I can get to church.
Once she was all estabished in the routine etc, I decided to do some grocery shopping and at least use the time alloted to us. However, I no sooner got to the store than the worker phoned to say that John was slipping out of his chair and she could not get him back in. So I had to come home again. Poor girl was really concerned as John was having a bad attack and I think it scared her.
The next lots of meds worked better and John did fairly well from then until 10pm tonight. The 9:30 meds did not click in either and he was in a pretty bad way for the 10pm worker. She is one we have for 3 nights in a row each week (most workers we see once a week) so she knows John better than most. It looks as if he has a few more shingles spots on his back and he is still jumping nearly up to the ceiling whenever we even gently point at a spot or try to put ointment on it.
I gave him his sleeping pill early again because he was in such distress and by the time we had him ready for bed the eyes were shutting and he was asleep before the worker even left. Hopefully he will sleep until monring.
Two thumbs down for today.
