Sorry it’s been awhile since we last posted. Joe is still at Luther Manor in Sioux Falls. We were suppose to start visiting him last week but they stopped all visitation due to COVID in the facility.
Joe has been complaining of throwing up after every meal, even a few bites. We took him to a GI doctor and they did a few medication changes. Unfortunately this has not helped a lot. We will give it another week and if he doesn’t get better we will call the GI clinic to figure out what other options he may have.
It was nice to spend a few hours with Joe at his appointment. He is depressed and continued to say he just wants to come home. We keep on telling him he needs to get stronger before he can come home. We are hoping in a few weeks he can go home.
I also spoke with the nephrologist last week. He has high hopes for Joe and thinks he is doing well right now. Joe was happy to hear this and is making him work harder to go home.
Please continue to call Joe and he needs his spirits lifted.
