I finally did get my missing husband on the phone last night before I went to bed. Turns out he thought I wasn't going to call until 10:00 p.m. and it was noisy outside his room and he couldn't hear the phone ringing. When I finally got him, he was just starting to get worried about not hearing from me. (And NO the charge nurse did not tell him I called!) So this morning I was supposed to call him about 11:00 a.m. and damn if it didn't happen again. I finally got him about 12:30 this afternoon (he'd been sleeping part of this time and dialing the wrong phone number the other times he was trying to reach me). I told him, from now on you call me, I'm not calling you and I made sure he had the right number.
He got the first dose of the drug this morning and so far is feeling no ill effects from it. He's in good spirits. (I seem a bit cranky though don't I?) A chaplain visited this afternoon while I was there and prayed with us. I believe she was a Rabbi. We were also visited by a clown who gave us both fake noses (I kid you not).
I had a bright idea while I was at the hospital. I called the patient library and asked if they accepted book donations and they do (yippee!) so I'm going to take some books that I've read and have no place for over there tomorrow.
I got back home about 8:00 p.m. this evening and grabbed a quick dinner of split pea soup with some cheese and crackers. I'm wiped out and will probably go to bed early. Have a restful night.
