Granny's gone and done it again

Pneumonia vaccine is usually 2 doses that cover pneumonia caused by gram-positive streptococcus pneumoniae. If the doctor did a culture of the stuff in your husbands lungs and it was some other kind of germ he may want to give him something else. There are 2 or 3 types of pneumonia vaccine that cover different serotypes of the bacteria. Sorry if I confused you. It's had to explain.
It's hard when the Drs only come in early in the morning and DH is too foggy to tell the difference between Drs and nurses to call me. Thursday midnight he went in by ambulance. Pain under his rib and SOB. I thought the chest X-ray shows pneumonia but diagnosis was kidney stone and the prescribed lidocaine patches for muscle pain. And sent him home It threw me off. So when he failed to thrive and continued with the same symptoms, I went with the Friday diagnosis and used lidocaine patches but last evening I also started giving morphine hoping he passes the stone to keep him out of the hospital. The morphine didn't work so I took him in this morning and they compared Fridays chest X-ray to today's and today's was much worse. So maybe the problem on Friday was also pneumonia. This time he's admitted

That poor guy cant catch a break. How can they mix up those 2 things? Sounds to me like you have a bunch of quacks working there getting Drs. wages while performing the duty of a janitor.
 
Whoo, I was sound asleep. Phone woke me, was one of my other DGS's. Before you ask, Granny, I have 4. Four GS and 3 GD. Oldest is 25 or 26, youngest is my Elijah, 19. The one who called is Benjamin, the one next older than Lij. He's 20. I only know his b'day bc he was born 5/8/05, a number for some reason I can remember and it was Mother's Day so I told my DD he was her gift to me. I can't remember most of the others, I've always been hopeless at dates. Guess what kind of grades I got in History, lol.

@Rambling Iris , how is y'all's hen that had prolapsed? Was Larry able to get her the implant to keep her from ovulating? I don't recall seeing the resolution on this little girl.
She is doing fine. We will put her back with a group of hens with no rooster in a few days. The vet has not been able to get the medication it's out of stock everywhere he can order, but he will keep trying.
It's late and 'm headed to bed. Night All.
