he finally got his IV yesterday. I guess he did ask what his bp was and said it was 190/100. I've had mine go well over 200 in times of high stress so I know it scares the medical community but I survived and it came back down. They should have given him the IV on Friday as prescribed.

What's the oddest thing of this journey so far is that he feels better at week 5 than he did at week 1. Maybe he is using some of the meds offered? I don't know. the bad thing is his dog companion got run over tonight and had to be put down. Talk about a kick in the gut on top of all this sickness.

Watching someone suffer is really wearing me down. It's emotionally exhausting as I wouldn't wish this on anyone. As the nurse said day 1....this is the worst thing we could do to a human. I've been through a lot of tough stuff in my life but this awful and he's feeling pretty good these days. It's still awful.
