The IV's are off. No food, Nothing by mouth. Mum gets very small doses of Dilaudid or hydromorphone. Drugs are very difficult to administer now, not only because her skin is so thin but because with her disease she reacts badly to anti psychotics and she cannot swallow.
We run out of tissues quickly here. Dad is beside Mum and he is almost back to where he was before he came here with pneumonia.
I wish we could get out of here, the emergency ward, and get a private room.
This morning Dad's LPN dressed him, wheeled him over to Mum's bed. Dad stood up and leaned over the railing to give Mum a kiss. He said "I don't want to give her just a cheap kiss."
