So, my mom got my grandfather moved back into the nursing home Wednesday. She came home and spent the night in her own bed on Wednesday night. On Thursday, the nursing home called her and said the hospital had called and said Pop-paw has TB and has to go back to the hospital. They get him back to the hospital and another Dr says “no, he doesn’t have TB, but we think he has MAC.” But they can’t confirm that yet. This could be the reason that all the test are coming back inconclusive. Which could also mean that what they think is cancer, could be caused by this MAC stuff. In the meantime the entire nursing home was locked down and tested for TB! Which they are now saying he doesn't have!
I told my mom that she needs to stay in better contact with me and she said it is so difficult to know what is going on because one Dr will come in and say he has this, this and this. Then a specialist will say “No, he has this and this.” She doesn’t know, and they don’t know either – obviously! It is a crazy roller coaster. The hospital doesn’t seem to be in too much of a hurry to let anyone off this ride...just pray.
As of tonight, there is no new news.
