Coming home from the hospital



Present Day: 2/24/2013

It has been very frustrating going to the hospital and back home and riding taxis left me with barely any money left.  Well Craig is finally home from the hospital as of yesterday.  The past few days they kept postponing him going home because his potassium was low.  Then once his potassium went up, it was then his magnesium that was causing trouble and was low so they had to keep their eye on that.  Quite a few people were saying that he needs to start eating bananas because they are very high in potassium.  He actually has been eating bananas.  I have been making him some nutribullet drinks with bananas and mixed fruits.  I am sure that would help too. 

His body has been swollen filled up with water so he has been taking water pills.  Hopefully all the swelling will go down and everything will go back to normal.  Now that he’s out of the hospital, maybe they will listen that he does need a caregiver and I’m the person for it.  I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.  He’s going to talk to his doctor and counselor about it.
