Jul. 30th, 2018 09:10 amScott's sister is going to be in the hospital for a while yet. They removed a 'mass' from her small intestine yesterday around 5:30 a.m. It wasn't a really well planned surgery because they had trouble finding the thing with pre-surgery scans. I suspect that they're also not sure that the mass was the only problem. It will be several days before they get the pathology report to tell us what the damned thing was.
Scott spent the afternoon at the hospital and stayed until a bit after his parents got there around 6:00. He's planning to visit tonight after work. I'm debating going over after PT as I'll be out anyway. I just can't tell if Scott's sister would like that. It's a long trip for me to make just for having done it.
My neck and shoulder pain got very bad over the weekend, so I think that stress and anxiety magnify the problem. It was quite as bad yesterday as the worst days before I started PT.
Scott is stressed and worried enough that he's not willing to help me with the OT assignment that I have to have done before my appointment on Wednesday. Well, he's not unwilling. He just considers it completely unimportant and so low on his list of priorities that it doesn't matter if it gets done. I need to point out that I can't get further treatment without this and that I only have two more appointments and will then be completely on my own. I won't die of it, but I will remain in pain.
I need about an hour of his time, and it really does need to be him. I'm supposed to get photographs of how I sit in various places in the house and how I lie when I sleep and of the layout of the kitchen and all of that. I can do the physical space photos, but I can't take useful pictures of myself for this purpose. Scott's around enough to have some idea of my normal postures. Nobody else really is.
Maybe I need to reschedule this week's appointment and have next week's be my second one? I have no idea if that will help at all.
