kp wasn’t feeling like eating today, but due to the doctors, bloggers, husbands and family telling her how important it was, she forced down 3/4 of a toasted bacon and egg sandwich. Her meds then came round and she has to take this new oral antibiotic in liquid form. She was nearly sick when she took it last night so she had asked if she could have it in tablet form.

It looks like blood and doesn’t taste much better according to kp :-

Well she had drunk about 3/4′s of this evil liquid, she said “Sick Bowl” and projectile vomited her guts up. For Ronnie’s info, there was bacon, egg, milk, tea and red antibiotic liquid.

Poor kp, she had put such effort into eating breakfast and then this liquid buggered it all up. To add insult to injury, at the very moment she did her last vomit motion, a nurse walked in and said :-

Nurse :- Karen, you can have that antibiotic in capsule form.

DOH !

Whilst the nurse was there, I asked if Karen could have a real bath. She said she would check. After a couple of hours, the chap who had performed the operation and another surgeon visited kp to assess the wound and they are happy with it as it is at the moment, and are also happy for her to have baths . This is great news for kp.

We didn’t get chance to have a bath this morning as it was then lunchtime. She ate her beef stew and then Yvonne arrived and we all went outside for about 30 minutes fresh air.

Yvonne is on afternoon shift.
