Today I received a phone call from Rick. "I am being released today." Then he filled in the details. He is being relocated to a health care facility in the next town from ours. He will have to remain there for the next five weeks...35 more days. His physicans have prescribed five more weeks of intravenous anti-biotics. The VA, Rick's only source of prescription drugs will not pay for them. Medicare will only pay for them if he is confined to a health care facility. He was told that he must sleep there and receive two infusions per day, one at 6am and one at 6pm but between those infusions I can take him home. This has made him VERY happy!
I am now awaiting the call to "Come Pick Me Up!"
More good news soon I hope...
I so hope the treatments get him on his way to feeling better! Please take care of yourself too!
