As always, thank you for the reminder! We are traveling and I likely would have forgotten. Seems like I lose track of the dates when we are not at home.

Thank you for the reminder Annie and good luck to you and everyone else of course as well!

Thanks Annie!

Okay, will stay up! I all ways forget in the morning!

Thank you!! I forget every month! Could use some good luck.

Dang it I already messed up. And we were determined to do it. I said something to him after midnight.

Rats. DH said.something to me and I answered. If we don't have good fortune, it's all his fault!

I was still up and said it about 12:05 this a.m. DH looked at me and said it first thing when he got up. We're good to go! :)

Me, too!

For the first time, I did it!!! I woke up and mumbled it. I woke up again in the night and said it again, for good measure. Spoke to Hubby who's in the hospital, and first thing out of my mouth was Rabbit rabbit to him. He didn't even say hello. He answered back, so we're good to go!!

Jasdip how is your hubby doing?

Raven it's a saga!!! He fell one night mid July, getting off the couch. His legs gave way from under him. 11 pm, and ambulance took him to hospital. MRI showed new cancer spot on his T-2 which was blocking the signals to his lower body to move. 5 bouts of radiation and he can move his legs.

2 weeks in hospital, a bit of walking with help and a walker, and can pull himself around with wheelchair using his legs. Sent to another hospital for re-hab, July 30. Did a bit of re-hab and then he wasn't able to do any.

Platelets and white blood cells are low, he's anemic, blood pressure is low, heart rate is high (now settling in the mid-90's). Has another cancer spot on his liver, but 2 ultra-sounds show that it's not growing, which is good, because he wouldn't be allowed to have chemo anyway because his levels are all low.

We are NOT happy at all with the hospital he's in (in a neighbouring city). We actually met with a social worker and a health care worker, who flat out said, the second week of August, that he's being discharged on Aug. 21 but won't be able to come home, because he can't walk up the 3 flights of stairs to our apartment. (We live on the top floor of a triplex apartment building)

No mention of what we're supposed to do, they're throwing him on the side of the road like an unwanted animal. Huuuuge stress for both of us. I finally saw a Dr. the Sunday before the 21st and said that he can't be discharged, he's not ready. He looked at his notes and said there was nothing there about being discharged. I told him what we were told and he said that they don't throw people out.

Anyway, he's still in the same hospital, getting a little better gradually, received 2 units of blood yesterday, and now they want him to start re-hab again.

He chose 2 other places for re-hab, not in this hospital. He just wants out of there. He's able to do leg exercises in bed and can sit in the wheelchair for a couple of hours.

Oh Jadsip! I'm so sorry about the maltreatment from this hospital. I hope you both complain and complain loudly!!!

Years ago, (37 yrs) when my father was in & out of the hospital, it got to the point where we had to stay with him 24/7 just to assure he was treated well. When we let the doctor know of the situation he was just livid!

Prayers that your hubby improves and gets into a good rehab situation!

Forgot to add that I remembered to "rabbit rabbit" this morning. I wasn't real sure what the date was so I said it yesterday too. LOL

Wow Jasdip so sorry to read this! So glad you followed up with the doctor and are getting out of that particular Hospital. Unbelievable! Hugs to you and your DH and best of luck.

At the stroke of midnight I did my part. Dh mumbled what did you say? I wonder if we get half good luck when one of us says it.

I'm so sorry jasdip that you and your DH are going through all of this. Sending you thoughts of comfort, courage, strength and persistence.

I rarely open the rabbit threads. This morning... as you can see, I did.

Jas, I am sorry your husband is in such trouble. I hope and wish he is getting better and to a hospital you both like... and eventually can come home, better sooner than later.
