Not Much News Today

So there's isn't much news today in the way of Rassie's CML.  They didn't do labs today because his numbers are looking so well there really isn't a need to do them everyday.  He was scheduled to only do them once a week anyways.  If it weren't for the back injury they would not have been doing them everyday .

So here we are a week and a day after the accident and there still isn't any improvement.  After a nurse failed to do her job yesterday. Rassie was left waiting in a wheel chair for over 2 hours for sheets to be put on his bed so he could get back into it, get the pressure off of his back and his feet propped back up.   It caused both legs to go numb from the hips down and tremendous swelling.  After asking to speak to a charge nurse, Rassie's nurse had sheets put on his bed and then left him to move himself from the wheel chair to the bed.  He's able to move his upper body over but having no feeling in his legs he is still unable to move them back and forth from bed to wheel chair and vice versa.. So he had to wait some more! I was at home with the babies so I was not happy to hear about this.   It also caused his lower back to swell up and bruise. ( I will try to get a picture uploaded later but I must warn you it looks nasty)  The doctors seem to think that leaving him in the wheelchair so long aggitated something in his back and they also said it was very unacceptable of the nurse to do that.  They sent  him for another ct scan today. This time they did not use contrast. And they also did an ultrasound on both legs to make sure they were free from blood clots.  All we're waiting for are the ct results.  I plan on going to the hospital in the morning to catch the doctors and ask all the questions that Rassie forgets. 

For now, all I can say is Keep Praying!
