AM IV Drip Done

We got through the IV drip this AM. The worst part was getting Coleman up and out at 6am. He fought us on that. We made it in time, hooked up (photos later) and got underway.

Within a few minutes the girl in the private room next to us arrived in her wheelchair and sunglasses. She has a private room because of her sensitive hearing and light issues.
I felt so unnerved by Coleman's yelling when the inevitable mowing started next door for over an hour. He was in a bad way with his eyes jumping a lot. It amazes me now to know those are seizures.

They have decided to move us to the center room this afternoon. If it works, that will become our home. We can bring in a more comfortable chair-most people do- and other things. I might try to bring the XBox in daily and get a few things for the wall. I have seen another boy in the main IV room and secretly hope he could sit in and play games with C one day.

We're in the car basically killing time while we wait for the furniture to get in the apt. Car rides are tough because of the noise so he's a bit agitated and not talking. When ever he is anxious about something, like this AM in the drip room, he tends to loose his speech for a while.

Hopefully we'll get out of this overloaded car soon...
