Day -5

Friday March 6, 2009

Today was a rough day. I received a phone call from Jake and school and Jake told me he was diagnosed with slight depression by his pyschatrist Joel Wish. He says its from the side effects of the drugs he is on. He is also diagnosed with Influenza B. In doing so every visitor must wear a mask, gown, and optional gloves. Today his mom was here and I joined her after school at about 4. My mom and dad visited at about 5. Jake was not feeling well and could not keep much down today. He also started getting a sore throat from his influenza. Shelli a family friend joined at 9p.m. Katie was his R.N. and his N.A. was Linda. They did everything they could to try and cheer him up. He woke up late at night and played some video games and then went to bed at 11. He was able to keep his supper down through the night, but still didn't sleep the best. Since he can't remember much I made him a calendar to keep on track of what happens as the days go on. He layed in bed and I rubbed his head as he fell asleep. Sweet Dreams. Everyone have a great night!
