    Pending Appointments And Issues

    1. Waiting on the orthopedist’s office to call us back, regarding setup of Mom’s physical therapy.  The therapist came for the first time since Mom’s last appointment with the orthopedist today.  So we’re no longer waiting for this call.   DONE.
    2. 2010-02-19 @ 11:00 AM:  Appointment with her eye doctor to check the progress of the clearing up of the blood in her right eye.
    3. 2010-04-14 @ 11:10 AM: Wednesday: Appointment with orthopedist for the next quarterly checkup on the progress of healing of her charcot foot. 
    4. 2010-04-23 @ 02:00 PM: Friday: Appointment with PCP for quarterly checkup.

    09:00 AM: Blood sugar: 226.  Covered with 20 units of log insulin.

    09:45 AM: Mom began her work with a physical therapist today, to learn how to walk again while recovering from the charcot foot.  However, the therapist noted that the orders from the orthopedist did not specifically state that Mom can indeed apply full weight to the foot yet.  They didn’t say that she couldn’t, but nor did they say that she could. So before her next visit, the therapist will confirm with the orthopedist that he does intend for Mom to do full weight-bearing on her right foot.

    02:00 PM: Dispensed Mom’s lunch-time meds.

    02:05 PM: Blood sugar: 242.  covered with 20 units of log insulin.

    06:40 PM: Blood sugar: 71.  She’s getting something to eat now to raise this a little.

    06:42 PM: Dispensed Mom’s evening meds.
