Is this wrong to confess, I'm getting tired. :(( Feeling life is full of unscheduled events right now.
Matt got to go in early today to have blood work and then visit with the PA. They had lots of questions about the headache he had since last week, which he said was now gone after the meds in the IVs from yesterday made him sleep until this afternoon. So with all his counts low (except for the platelets due to the transfusion yesterday) he will need a blood transfusion tomorrow. So this is how our afternoon went....
2:15 Beka takes Matt to his blood workup
2:30 I meet over at the doctors appt. just in time to talk with PA to find out that they want to do CT scan today to make sure there is no bleeding of the brain, which might cause the headaches. (Didn't even realize that could happen.)
2:55 But to save time, we first had to go to the hospital to have his blood "typed" again to make sure they get the right blood type for him for tomorrows transfusion.....we wait for almost an hour to have the five minute test done. (Also learned that he will have to have his blood typed each time he has a transfusion to double check that nothing has changed with his type of blood...again didn't realize that could happen.)
4:10 Back over to the doctors office to finally get the scan done, which we won't have results until tomorrow.
4:35 Drive back home only to get to listen to the way Matt's mind in already imagining the worst case results of the scan.
So please pray results on scan show nothing. Matt will be at the hospital for about four hours for all the blood to drip. So pray that all goes smoothly too!
