I'm sorry, secret siren, but I'm blocking out your calls
It'a Monday, ugh. I had a nice 4 day weekend, and I don't want to go back to work. It was too nice being off work for a few days, even if it was a little bit of a mess of a day. Dad seems to be doing well, and we're trying to get into a routine of how best to care for him. Hopefully, the nurse will be out soon, so we can get him physical therapy. I don't really think he'll ever get back where he was. I think that's probably not going to happen. If he can ever get back to being able to stand, I'll be surprised. For now, I think we're probably going to be switching out the sit/stand assist for an electric lift. Maybe in the future, we'll be able to go back to the sit/stand, but I really have no idea.
Yesterday, he had some trouble urinating, which had me a bit freaked out. He finally went with application of some iced tea to the problem, but I was totally imagining calling his PCP for catheters and having to deal with that. Thankfully, things progressed as normal. I am waiting to call the bed people until the check from his retirement account comes through, as I'm pretty sure they can't fix it with him in the bed, so we need the lift.
I did put in a complaint with one of the local negligence lawyers. I don't know that they'll take the case, since he didn't have that bad of an outcome, but I'm going to try. We're putting out a ton of money to take care of him, and it would be nice if we could recoup some of it.
Today, I have a very late mid-year review at work, so that'll be thrilling. It'll go fine, but I don' wanna. I slept for shit last night, and I just don't feel like participating.
Hopefully, everything else will go quietly today. I don't need any excitement for a change.
Okay, going to go forth and get myself together, such as it is. Everyone have a wonderful Monday!
