I really appreciate this CALS thread and all of you.
- tom is not constipated. The frequency of bm need was the diarrhea from relyvrio. And gas making him think it was bm. We stopped Relyvrio.
- i think the physical strength issues are that i am 70, lower back issues, torn rotator cuff, 185 lb PALS with no core strength or leg strength. Sometimes he slides even though i have legs up in bed. Our new aide said it will happen. People slide. I am trying to minimize the sliding. And i think i have accomplished that.
- I am getting good at sling and lift. I had no person help with experience. Learned via youtube. I had aid put me in sling first b4 tom.
- we have a terrific PT aide mon, weds, fri. Agency is Working on staffing for other days.
My tired rant was after a night of commode visits.
You are all amazing. Hugs.
