Laura called last night, freaked about Father’s medication and overall treatment (or lack of).\u00a0 She says the hospital staff aren’t feeding him (just leave the food on a tray 4 feet away), aren’t giving him his medication for swelling and seizures, have disconnected his fluids IV, and leaving him in the supine position every day (rather than sitting up).\u00a0 He’s developing bed sores on his hip and legs.<\/p>\n
I called the hospital last night and spoke with Zee, a nurse; she says that he’s taking his meds but has been disconnected from the IV.\u00a0 She doesn’t know why and says I should call Dr. Heather Leyen at 8am in the morning.<\/p>\n
I did that, and her voicemail states that “unless you’re cancelling an appointment, don’t bother leaving a message because it won’t be returned.”\u00a0 How do you like that.<\/p>\n
