Good news!

Your prayers are working. We are meeting with a pain specialist tomorrow morning.(as of 20 minutes ago) The Dr. was totally booked but because Dr. Carroll asked for a referral and I called three times :) they are meeting with us at 10:15AM at Hoag in Irvine. He said there is no reason he has to suffer like this..... Hurrah!

This morning was rough. Last night I got the powder version of Protonix from the primary care physician for his tube. Bless his heart the primary care didn't know how g-tubes work so this morning I got his tube blocked when I started it. We had to go to Mission Interventional Radiology. Thank you to amazing Alice for getting us within an hour. They had to put a wire in his stomach to unblock the tube. Joe, the nurse, was amazing and he says he has done this a thousand times. I cried all morning. After 15 minutes that got it clean and clear. Brace is going to take that one by mouth. He says he can do two pills a day - just not 25. :) . Alice, the amazing nurse practitioner, talked to us for 30 minutes and gave us options to get through the night.

Thank you's

Christy Dahl for offering to help this morning

Bev Leung for building the hospital table

Michelle Stevens for taking my amazon items back.

Cindy Wilson for changing the sheets while he was at radiation and while I was teaching.

Erik Larsen for driving and helping him get his liquid pain reliever to get him through the night.
