Kevin's Corner: Scott Is Home

Scott Is Home

Got him home yesterday afternoon. He is doing okay as far as we can tell. Dad is seriously worn out from his own issues as well as worry and all that.

For now, do not look for any changes here. I don't expect to be doing much online the next couple of days as I see how things are for both of us.

And I agree, Scott looked very handsome in that photo.; 4:45 PM

Jan Christensen said...: What a surprise. I'm guessing you have mixed feelings about this--worrying that something will go wrong, but happy for both of you to be done with the hospital. Scott will get a lot more rest at home, for sure. And that should help him get ALL better sooner. I have wanted to email you but have held off because I don't want to make you feel you have to answer. Know I think of you and Scott a lot. Hoping for the best!!!; 6:43 AM

Kevin R. Tipple said...: Good Saturday morning everyone and thank you.

Scott is doing better. We still do not know why all of this happened. We do know there is going to be lots of medical stuff ahead to not only try and determine why it happened, but make sure the muscle enzyme dissolving deal is going away. That can take weeks to months.

I am still fairly sick. Part of that is no doubt caused by stress as I am terrified of him having another seizure. I may be driving him nuts with the constant, "are you okay?" which is often followed by something about is it better or worse than earlier, yesterday, or whenever. When he was in the hospital, I knew they were taking very good care of him. Now that he is home, it is all on me, and since they do not have a good idea what caused it, I have no idea what we really need to do to avoid it.

Telling me to go home, relax, and for us to live our lives as normal, is some of the stupidest stuff I have ever been told in my life. Knowing we were both in the hospital multiple days in a row and most likely around folks with Covid, whether we knew it or not, is not a good thing to think about either.; 10:23 AM
