Had a new different nurse today that did things a little differently than the rest of them. She came two hours later than the others have, had me check my vitals and said she would be right back then returned two hours later. When she brought my medications they were all still in their packages (everyone else brings them in a small cup ready to go). This would not be a normal issue, but I've been in here for a week now and my garbage cans are quite full (and not smelling great). All in all, she came to my door a total of three times for the entire day. Good thing I didn't need anything. On the up side, I had two great visits today from my special brother-in-laws - John and Mark. It was great to see them both and we each had a good time. Somehow, I must have slipped through the cracks today and they did not come to take my Geiger reading. I asked about it late afternoon and was told that by their calculations it didn't need to be done because I'd be ready. The numbers are pretty important to me and I would have liked to have known where they were at. Seven is the number I need to get out of isolation, but two is the number I need to get to (or below) to get my stem cells back. I am scheduled to get out tomorrow but they are full right now and waiting for a room on this floor for me. May not be first thing in the morning but I will be sure to post my new phone number and room number as soon as it's all figured out.
Hope your new room feels better. Get some good rest and maybe even a little fresh air. I am on the hunt for gourmet blueberry pop tarts.
