Rush hour seems lighter now that it is spring break. I got here at 8am and found Jesse, her nurse, Felix her CNA and Carol, the Wound care nurse getting her cleaned up and ready to face the day. Jesse said they started on her at 7:15 knowing I would be in. When she saw me the first thing she said was " Where have you been!!" I assured her that I was there as soon as I could be. Then she said "Why am I here?" and I answered so you can get better. She said "No I'm not." Then "Take me home."

They had turned off her food as she was to go to CT to get the drain tubes put in, but CT called and said they were backed up with ER work and it would be later. She has been complying for the last two days that her belly hurts. She asked for a laxative but she had 5 stool last shift and one this AM. Jesse opened her tube and let off some gas. Her belly seems distended but no one knows why. The main thing right now is to get the Elephant off her chest.

By 11am her blood sugar was down to 57 so they pushed some sugar. CT came up about 12:30 and we went downstairs to the CT Lab. We were back up to the room by 2pm and in a new room, 406, no roommate.

So far they took off 60ml from each side in the CT Lab and the drains have over 1200ml from each side so far. She is still complying she can't breathe but this should ease as her lungs expand. They gave her a shot for the pain and now she is sleeping.

She is still complaining about pain in her gut but has had no input since 6am when she had a large bm.

John coming up later.
