Club Med, Day 1

We've checked in at "Club Med" for a 10-14 day stay for Mr. B to get IV antibiotics and lung therapies, including a new one that we found out tonight would be starting called hypertonic saline in addition to the list he's already got.  This will cause lots of coughing, but hopefully will bring up a lot of the gunk that's been stuck in his lungs, clear up the infection, and bring his lung function tests back up to the levels he had been at.  Getting the IV in was a bit of an adventure, but once he calmed down for just a few seconds, it was over with quickly.  Now he's calmly having dinner and watching Puss n Boots.

In the meantime, I have my laptop, my phone, a book to read, and my card weaving to keep me busy.  Ben has his DS, a stack of movies, some books to read, some little plastic pirates & stuffed animals, and we got a fresh pack of Uno cards to play.  There are also crafts that we can do (bringing them back from the activity room) and of course, homework.  Sure would be nice if there was a table in here, though.  Even a little card table would be nice.

Our view is a little less than ideal...unless you happen to like Bob the Builder.  Apparently Waldo can be found somewhere in this construction site and they move it every day.  Too bad I'm nearsighted.  Maybe he'll be able to see it out there.

More tomorrow.

Sorry--I'm getting a lot of junk emails, so moderation is necessary. Maybe just allowing members of the blog to comment would be easier...or those with Google accounts...let me know if that would be easier.
