Possible discharge Monday

Quick update:

Ron has developed a rash on his back that is causing him to have terrible itching! So bad that he called me at 12:45 am Sunday morning to come put some lotion on it for him! (He would have been in big trouble for scaring the daylights out of me --to hear his specific ringtone on my phone--if I hadn't still been up doing laundry!) They think it's from one of the antibiotics he was on and it should go away on it's own. Please pray this resolves quickly!

Sunday, he resumed walking without the walker, three times throughout the day!YEAH!

They feel vomiting has been caused by severe reflux which is unavoidable at this point with the g-tube. Trying him back on the Prevacid solutabs today to see if it relates in any way. (Had been on those a couple of days when got sick, switched to Protonix injection, got better, now trying back on Prevacid)

Dr. Shires wants to do a fistula-gram today to check everything out once more before sending us home. Shooting for discharge tomorrow.
