the waiting continues...

Well, we talked with the nurse today and the best we can do to see someone is Tuesday afternoon. Callum is no better, but I suppose no worse. The swelling in is arm is somewhat better, but it is still obviously swollen. Whatever is happening in his neck - which I am guessing is related to the swelling - is making it hurt to swallow so he has cut back a bit on eating and drinking. He ate a pretty good supper though, so I feel much better about that. It was a bit frustrating to not get in to see someone today. The nurse just said he could go see his family Dr for something for pain relief for his neck, and to go to the ER if he got worse. She suggested alternating hot and cold on the neck. The problem is that the neck issue is no muscle related! And he has enough pain meds here to do him for a long time. He has taken some Tylenol 3's today and that has given him a bit of comfort, but then he sleeps. So...no answers today. Hopefully tomorrow. And on we go......
