ER
Today was a busy day, as Carl had to return to ER to clear his bladder. When he went to the Spa/Rehab/Victory Lakes on Friday they removed his catheter (I think on Sat.) and he has not urinated since the removal of the catheter. The urge was there, he says but nothing would come. The nurse tried twice to insert a new catheter to no avail so she said we must send him to ER for a doctor to remove it. Murphy's ambulance picked him up and took him there and after a couple of hours and the removal of the urine with another catheter (quart plus of urine); they inserted a different one. I understand he will have it for 2 days and a doctor will look at it when they come to the rehab center. Hopefully everything will be okay. When he returned to the spa/Rehab/Victory Lakes they all were happy to see him back so I guess that made him feel good and welcomed. He is trying so hard to push his voice to speak as it is more than a whisper now and sometimes very loud.
