Marilyn Visit 8-29-08

Posted in Uncategorized at 10:41 pm by Chris Roberts

Went to Inola to visit Marilyn this evening after work.  When I went in she said I am so glad to see you I have been so worried about you, I asked her why she was worried about me, and she said she had not seen me for a while.  I asked her if she remembered me visiting her at the hospital and she shrugged her shoulders and went to sleep.  I asked her how she was feeling and she asked me why did you ask me that, told her that I was just checking to see if she felt alright, she then napped some more.  She napped on and off during my visit. At one point she asked me to move her trash can and then asked if I would take it home, I asked her why and she said that it was getting on her nerves.  Marilyn was able to verbalize quite well this evening.

Marilyn Visit 8-26-08

Marilyn was awake this evening and mouthed Oh so good to see you. Told her that I was up last night but that she was sleeping.  She really was trying to talk but I was having a hard time understanding her.  She kept mentioning Claire Jr’s wife, I said Margot and she said no, she was getting frustrated that I couldn’t read her lips.  I said do you mean Floyd Jr. and she looked at me and said yes that is what I have been saying.  She did seem a little confused at times, but I guess that is to be expected.

I told her at one point that I needed to get home and she kept mouthing no don’t go, stayed for about another 20 minutes and the nurse came in to suction her.  Told Marilyn that I would be up tomorrow if she was still in hospital, she mouthed you promise?

Marilyn’s nurse said that she would be going back tomorrow to Inola.  Her vent from Inola was not there.  Her nurse also mentioned that she needed better care at the nursing home, she said I am not supposed to say that but it is true. She said she needs to be suctioned more and bathed more often so that they could keep up with her skin infections, she mentioned that the condition she came in on Sunday evening wasn’t good.

It appears that Marilyn will be going back to Inola tomorrow according to the call from the doctor today!

I got a call from the doctor and she indicated that there were no signs of pneumonia at this time and the culture was clean. She indicated she was going to order her home vent and if everything went well she would be getting discharged tomorrow.It appears that she has been retaining too much liquid and that they need to adjust her meds. Also, it appears that there is serious sign of yeast infection on her skin and that it needs to be checked on regularly.

I will post the update once I know she has been discharged.

Thanks again for your continued love, prayers and support!

Marilyn was sleeping soundly during my visit this evening.  Her face was really flushed, her breathing was very calm compared to yesterday.  Her nurse came in and said that she does not have a fever and that she was a little responsive earlier in the day.  Nurse said they are giving her antibiotics to help with the infections.

Don Ross had been to visit Marilyn today.

Visited Marilyn today, noticed that she was really flushed and her breathing was very rapid and deep.  She opened her eyes and said Hi glad your back.  Asked her how she was feeling and she shrugged her shoulders.  Her forehead was very warm and they had a wet cloth on it.  Read her mail to her and she didn’t want me to hang her cards up just to put them in the drawer.  Put the pictures that she received in her album.

Marilyn’s sister Chris had been to visit while I was on vacation, Jim and Jane Martin also visited along with Doyle and Virginia and Al. 

Her nurse Gigi came in and said that they think she may have another bout of pneumonia and was giving her meds to try and help with it, and try to get her temp down. They had a call in to the Dr.

Marilyn didn’t look good today.
