I was gone yesterday from Noon to about 8 PM. I had to get some stuff done and run the boys around. It was the longest I have been away from Gary but he did have some friends visit throughout the day so that made me feel a little better.
Well, Zach and I get to the hospital and everything seemed great. Gary was talking to Rob and he was sitting up and alert. I was thinking that this was going to be a great night.
Dr. Barth came in about 8:45 and we had another great meeting. Dr. Barth has been seriously amazing and has been so loving towards Gary and he had a great conversation with Zach last night. Zach just loved him and Dr. Barth BLEW Zach's head up by telling him how good-looking he was and what a Stud he was! What a great self-esteem boost for Zach!
Well, during our conversation with Dr. Barth I found out for the first time that Gary had a 103 degree fever and no doctors were notified. I also found out as Rob and I were talking with Gary that he fell yesterday while trying to get back into bed from his chair.
Then, Dr. Phan came in and got nervous that Gary has had these fevers and he ordered an emergency CT Scan. So, the calm evening turned into a busy night and I have yet to sleep. At least Zach slept and did not hear much of the commotion.
The chest xrays were done at 11 PM and the CT was done at 2:15 this morning. Gary got back to the room around 4 PM and then they poked him and cleared his drains and messed with him for about an hour. He finally went to sleep around 5 AM.
I am eagerly awaiting the test results from the scans and xrays. I am on my way back to the hospital right now and will return home to get the kids from school and take Jax for some shots with Dr. Sears.
I will let you know how things unfold as I find out. Pray that they do not find anything earth shattering!
Love, L
