Another Setback

soundasleep

When I arrived at work yesterday morning, Nadine had already called my office number. My collegue informed me that she was stuttering so I turned on my heel and went back home again. I found her hardly adressable and mumbling senseless syllables. We got another ride in an ambulance with sirens to the Katharinenhospital then.

This time she recovered quicker than during her other breakdowns. The doctors couldn’t detect any change in her medical state and left us the choice between taking her in stationary or sending us home again. As there would be no medical benefit with staying in hospital we elected for our home. It seems like we have to live with these unexplained breakdowns.

The main task right know is too keep her from vomiting – she needs to take in medicine, food and water. If this doesn’t work I’ll have to return her to hospital so that her stuff can be delivered intravenous. So far everything worked quite well: She managed to keep in two rounds of pills plus some pulped baby food this morning. Later, I will give her some noodle soup.

In the picture you can see her the way I left her on the couch when I went shopping for groceries. She listened to the Moola Mantra and fell sound asleep really quick. Although she lost one earplug, she didn’t hear me when I returned and roamed around in the kitchen.  With the music already finished, she still sleeps while I’m typing these words.

  1. Oh Jens, you are so strong and good. I’m glad the Moola Mantra helps. Shari and I are thinking of you both and devoting our meditations to you both.

  2. Hallo Nadine, hallo Jens,
    ich wollte eigentlich morgen Abend mit Pizza vorbeikommen. Daran ist jetzt wohl nicht zu denken. Lasst mich wissen, wenn ich was für Euch tun kann.
    Ich denke an Euch!
