Kandy, hon gets some rest and take care of yourself! Kat is going to need you!!!!
Yeah, it wouldn't be good for Kat to be worrying about you, Kandy.
And as for the other family member...Kat's...grandma, is it? ( hard to think right when you're tired. See, Kandy? That wouldn't help you help Kat much.
😉 lol)
Maybe a good solution for them could be: half the family goes to one person one day, while the other family members stay with Kat...and then another day, they switch. Least then, they can both have some visitors.
I know how hard it is being in a hospital....and I think it's great that you're lookin out for Kat, Kandy.(And whoever else is lookin out for her, too. ) In some hospitals I've been in, seems almost like the family member has to watch out more for the patient than the doctors and nurses do.
Example: I was in the hospital and (this is gonna get a lil gross...so whoever has a weak stomach...either ignore this part, or get a trash can nearby ya. lol ) .................................................................had this tube runnin up the nose, into my stomach to suck out the undigested food that was causin me so much pain ( if I don't take enough enzymes with each meal --my body doesn't make enough of its own--, the food doesn't get broken down...one of the symptoms of Cystic Fibrosis)....and I had gotten up to walk around ( sometimes, walking around can help loosen up the...insides....you dog owners probably see your dog doing something similar. lol ). Well, when you walk around, ya gotta have the tube disconnected from it's machine...not just because it doesn't reach very far....but also, it HURTS if it moves too much inside ya...who knew the back of the nose was so freakin sensitive. lol
Well, when I got back to my room, the nurse tried hookin the tube back up to the machine and left. Thing is...it didn't work right....so my mom calls the nurses usin the thing on the side of the bed. She tries it for a freakin HOUR before she walks down to the nurses and asks them to hook the tube up right...and they finally do.
Not tryin to say hospitals are bad places, Kandy...just saying it's good that someone is watching out for Kat to make sure something like what I went through doesn't happen to her.
Again, take care of yourself so that Kat has one less person to worry about....depression and stress isn't gonna help her recovery .
