Hospice came right out and did the intake for my husband. the nurse practitioner should be here this evening. he has been sleeping all day--in bed until noon and now in his chair in the living room in front of the tv. his O2 is backup to 96, but his HR is hovering at 145 (which is better than the 160 he had earlier). I can see him struggling to breath now, and his voice is just a whisper. I gave him one of my anxiety pills which I think definitely helped bring down his heart rate and hospice is getting him his own script tomorrow.
in the last 2 days I have had very little sleep--Tuesday night he was up hourly all night, and then last night I had 3 hours of sleep but luckily 2 power naps today. I worry tonight will be rough also.
