Law & Order Marathon, Day 57

Yes, Archie watched the Law and Order marathon most of the day.  One of his concerns throughout the hospital stay is he did not want to watch daytime tv so he has been watching the news in the morning and that is about it.  Needless to say he found a Law and Order marathon and watched a bunch of episodes today.

Today began with me walking in to there being a pill on his table and the nurse was bringing his next pill.  The pill is called Flagell (spelling could be wrong) which is the pill he takes for his c-diff.  He has choked on the pill previously and so the nurses started splitting the pills in half.  The halves seem to be a challenge as well.  After choking a couple of times on the halves he is not interested in taking any.  Which really does not work really well because by the end of the day there were 5 halves of pills on his table.  I told him that when I left to pick up dinner that he needed to finish his pills and brush his teeth otherwise i would leave after we ate dinner instead of waiting until 9 pm like i normally do.  Thankfully he got one whole pill down which seemed to work with the nurse.  The nurse made a note to talk to the doctors to see if there is an IV version since he is having such issues.
He went for a walk this morning and a walk this afternoon, a lap each.  His appetite is getting better with each day.  Besides that it was a boring day. Good night everyone!
