So today the Doctor agreed to take Stan completely off of two of the drugs which have so many detrimental side effects and to decrease the dose of the third drug. We have to increase a different drug,but he has been fine with that drug in the past. We are going to try to get him Physical therapy at home to help with walking and activities of daily living, and have the visiting nurse come in. Unfortunately, if his mental status does not improve with these changes, we have to look into where he will be when I go back to work. This is still a very stressful period of time for me---I like to know the plan and see results--everyday seems to bring new challenges.
Stan would welcome visitors now--afternoon/evening seem better than morning. (please,however,if you have even a sniffle--wait until you are well--his immune system is still very compromised)
