Friday Update

Well, Karl is pretty much sedated today. The last two days are always the worst as he is so uncomfortable from the side effects that it's better for him to sleep. Not too much hallucinating going on but a lot of moaning and wheezing. Dr. Wyzinski ordered a chest xray just in case he has fluid in his lungs or worse pneumonia. I'll know more later. He has been difficult to respond to take medications and eat. Getting the phosamax down took a lot of coaching as well as some water or fruit juice. So needless to say he's zonked for the day. Last treatment at midnight and barring any other complications he should be going home late tomorrow evening.
