Monday, 28 September 2009 - Day +49

Poor Drew spent the day alone, I can return tomorrow morning. He is so brave, he had to have a cannula inserted for the CT Scan, which went marginally better than last Tuesday. He was very cranky afterwards and wouldn't talk to any of the Drs, Nurses or me, he probably wishes we'd all just pee off and leave him alone. Drew then wouldn't take his twice daily medicine, which needs to be taken 12 hours apart, nor the special liquid for the CT Scan. I was trying to persuade him over the telephone and finally he came around and did both. Nurse Katie took him down for the CT Scan and another Echo cardiogram, so hopefully one of these will give an answer to this mystery fever. To top off Drew's day his uncle who stayed with him last night was also sick today (different sickness to me) and couldn't stay, so he will spend the night alone too. Despite all that when I spoke to him at bed time he had had a little snooze in between the last time I spoke to him and he actually sounded much brighter.
