I am home.
I got the boot around 2pm, with a list of things to buy to keep myself comfortable at home. A robe, some slippers, medication, wound dressings, etc.
Went to visit the boy's mom and dad. Of course they're trying to blame the whole thing on my cat. Claiming that the cat gave it to me and I should get rid of her. Pretty much did a "fuck that, the doc said that MRSA is the most common infection, AND a quarter of the population just carries it on their skin at any given time" - just much nicer... which means get rid of the 'fuck that' - it's just that they don't like that I have a cat because cat hair gets on their son's furniture. That's literally it. They want me to get rid of her because they don't think he's clean enough with her in the house.
IN ANY CASE. After standing around for a bit, my back was hurting so we went to grab my meds and something to eat. Doc told me to get some saline solution to flush my back with. Said it'd be on the shelf at any pharmacy. Guess what? It's not. Because some fucktards decided it would be a great idea to start injecting themselves with it and people decided it was dangerous.
Called the hospital and they called the doc... doc couldn't believe it. He said that tap water would work, but the boy was dubious and so he bought distilled water instead, figuring it had less 'stuff' in it that might irritate things.
From there, we hit up the McD's and I ate about five chicken nuggets and maybe ten french fries before feeling full, and took my meds.
ON TO WALMART
Got my robe (it is comfy), could not find giant loose night pants, so I'm just going without. No shame right now, I'm in pain. Found some large t-shirts though that look really comfy, so that's a nice bonus. Got the distilled water from walmart too - and grabbed a nice thing of cotton balls just in case.
Now I'm just chilling out, on some percocet, and a barrage of antibiotics (three at a time, four times a day for now, then later three at a time three times a day). Have an appointment for next week to see if I can get the tubes removed - if so, then yay. If not, then we'll try again in a week.
In the meantime - I'm just trying to relax and keep clean.
