We survived another night in this insane hospital, yay! The doctors are giving Brianna IV Tylenol. It has been used in Europe but was just recently approved for use here. Her nurse said Brianna is the first one on this floor to try it. It has had good results so far for her. Seems to work much better than oral tablet Tylenol but doesn\u2019t last long enough.<\/p>\n
When I discussed Brianna\u2019s pain with one of her nurses a couple of days ago, she suggested Tordol, and said she would see if she could get it for her. \u00a0I then questioned what exactly that was. she said it is the IV version of Motrin. Ugh!!!! I said \u201cBrianna has renal failure so she definitely can\u2019t have that\u201d! She dumbfoundedly said, oh yeah.<\/p>\n
I am a firm believer that every child in here needs an advocate. I swear they would kill these children if someone else doesn\u2019t stay on \u00a0top of things! I am not quite sure what The Children\u2019s Hospital is so well known and respected for. \u00a0We had to fight for 2 hours to get her admitted, and the admissions rep just contacted us to sign a consent form this morning! Hello?????? We have been here since Sunday! What if I don\u2019t consent now to treatment? Isn\u2019t it a little late? Again people, get it together!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
