o.oo . . .

we drove to Tampa instead for the 9TS's third infusion.  It was touch and go.  He was in so much pain as we started out, I called Moffitt asking if we should keep on going or head for the nearest ER.  No response so we kept on driving.  GAH.

The pain is probably a result of the sensitivity of tissue from the body plumping itself up.  It will resolve on its own but the 9TS is now a walking pharmaceutical house of upper echelons pain meds. If we get low on rent money, we can hock the stuff on the corner for big bucks.  Think things ended there?

Last night the pain struck again.  Another trip to the ER.  Seems as a result of the infusion his body was full of gas.  Think helium balloon.  Nothing a little dilaudid couldn't handle.  Helium boy was higher than a kite!

And on that note, I am going back to sleep.

Poor Frank. Hope he's feeling better today.

If not, you might tie a string around him and go to the zoo and walk around. :::you know, like a balloon!:::
