January 6, 2019 - A Nurse made a weird and terrible mistake today
Please pray it doesn't cost my husband his life. A nurse made a bad mistake this morning. She put blood she drew from Greg's port back into his body through his port. She may have introduced bacteria directly into his blood stream. The hospital is flipping out about it. She told my husband at 4 am while she was putting the blood back in that she "doesn't like to waste blood." My husband said that it was done even before he had the chance to realize what was happening. Once blood is drawn, it can be contaminated and should never be injected back into the body. We are now on fever watch. Please pray that the blood was not compromised and that bacteria was not introduced directly into his blood stream. The doctor said we should know if he has been comprised within 48 hours.
I am sharing a song that I wrote with Kimberley Dahme. I am very proud of this song. Greg did the arrangement of this song and recorded it. All the instruments you hear are played by Greg and the vocals are me and Greg. He did all of this after his first stroke. I am trying to get him interested in writing and recording again. He really needs a reason to keep fighting and living at this point.
