Still dealing
The fall out from the Glyn Fiddich 4th of July Keeps getting worse . They were going to forhibit all visitors . Now they claim I have covid and put me in isolation . Thankfully I got my weekly pizza to day . They quickly separated me from all my belongings And moved me across the facility to the other side .
I had to change my own catheter this am. They said it was going to be done yesterday ..... it wasn't .... It kept getting put off this am . I pissed off the head nurse when i told her "don't bother I'll do it myself " . She told me they were going to get to it tomorrow......Yeah sure .... With nothing more then a 10cc syringe I emptied a 30cc balloon ,,, Used soap and water to clean my self and my hands , Used little packets of ky to lube and inserted my new catheter , I got it done . The painful uti gone in seconds . Those that know will tell you that there is no worse pain then a uti . It will cause a full grown man to pull a catheter out still inflated . He will rip his insides out to stop the pain . I was at that edge when I again took it upon myself to do the job in front of me .
Well they moved me I'm over here on the other side . I think ,,,"""""......Don't quote me verbatim ,,,,,, I think I am in the far southern wing .
So this will start to get boring as everything in isolation tends to get . I may just let it lay fallow for a while .

Sounds like they’re retaliating for your Flask fiasco! Hang in there and don’t let them get to you. When my wife was in rehab I brought in a bottle of wine every night. I’m sure the nurses were aware of it (I spilled a bottle one night!) and they never said a word. It’s good medicine if it raises your spirits! At least you’ve got your tablet. Keep posting, and like Suppo said, you’ve got a cheering section back here!

We're cooking up 👨🍳 some healing thoughts and sending them your way. It must be frustrating 😤 to have much more knowledge and ability to get things done, than the staff 👩⚕️ when it comes to catheterization and UTI's but we do what we have to. ❗
Sometimes withdrawing into ourselves is the only way to stay sane. 😵 Talking to yourself inside is better than talking to the walls though; the walls don't answer back! 😮
