night and a day and another night, July 14th

Well, it has been a very long 30 hours.  Joe came home yesterday around 4:00 pm and his pain level was at a point that he should have not come home at all. Brendalyn and Krista took turns being up with him all night, a call was made at midnight to get some help to move him to get Joe more comfortable. He felt like he was laying on a bed of rocks. No matter what was done for him his pain level could not get in control and Joe was vey uncomfortable. Talking soft and trying not to complain.
A home health care nurse came this morning and was only there for a few hours. He was not able to do much for him.  Another one came tonight because things just didn't seem right. After doing a few things and talking to the Doctor that discharged him a decision was made to call 911. It was time to have him go back to the hospital.
The EMT's and firemen did such of nice job of moving him and taking good care of him.  The kids all thought it was cool to have the fire truck and ambulance in the neighborhood. They are currently in the ER and we are just waiting and praying that they will just keep him at the hospital were he can get the proper care, and hopefully get his pain level in control.
Love you Joe !
