No change

There is no change in Dad's status today. Still no bowel movement. He called the doc office and they told him to continue with the milk of magnesium and try prune juice. hehe Dad wasn't happy with that. I stopped at the store on my way home from my doc appt and got him some and he's taken a couple glasses already.  Tonight, he was awake and you can see/hear that he's in pain. I told him to call his doc right now. He argued with me that since it was 8 o'clock at night that they won't be in. I constantly explain to him that they have answering services. So, he finally called and the doc called back within 4 minutes and told him to continue what he was doing and that he doesn't feel there is a urgent need for him to go to hospital yet. He told him to take more MOM and see what happens in the morning and to call the office if there's been no change.

That made me feel better that he finally called and I was there when he did so I could hear what the doc was telling him. 

On a side note....Mom had a bad fall today. She's an avid treadmill walker and today she must have pushed a wrong button and the treadmill took off really fast and threw her. She's bruised up pretty good and has a nice fox burn type cut on her knee. Of course, she wasn't using the safety clip that I have been lecturing her to use for months now.  She's ok, just really sore and bruised up.

I'll be checking in on them in the morning and i'll update tomorrow.

Stay cool!
