Trying to give Mac his antibiotic pill mixed with yogurt, and that was the answer, noo nooo don want, but I kind of forced it as it's so important for him to have it...and since he hardly ate anything all day..he needs the antibiotic if he is to get well. Sadly I don't think he will be coming home tomorrow, he has been coughing up phleme constantly, and spitting it any old place, the floor, the bed the pillow...doesn't seem to get it, I kept saying, Mac, please spit in this towel, but to no avail...perhaps that's what happened to his false top 4 teeth, he must have coughed them oiut last night, and this morning when I arrived - there was Mac without his top teeth, and though I spent so much time on my hands and knees looking all over the floor, under he bed, I even put my hands in he waste baskets where dirty stuff, including nurses plastic gloves, ugh...but no teeth. And as far as the nurses, preposees and cleaning staff are concerned, it's like "hummm wonder what could have happened to them...and on they go with their jobs. I must admit they are really busy, and so what can they do.
In the meantime, the doctor was in earlier and I missed her, but she ordered xray session for his lungs, which I have not gotten any results as yet. The nurse on duty tonight said to me before I left...don't count on him returning home tomorrow, I think he has pneumonia, and now his blood pressure and temperature are both high...this a.m. they were perfect. So I'm signing off with eyes that can hardly see for tears g'nite
