Had a pleasant conversation with Darah today...NOT!!  She said the doctor(psychiatrist) wants to put Dad on 15mg of Remeron (sleeping pill) and 2.5mg of Zyprexa (anti psychotic drug).  I asked her about Dad's weight and was he not concerned about that. She said that he thought once Dad's behavior was under control that he'd start eating.  I asked her at what point would they start to worry about Dad's weight and she said they were monitoring it weekly! (Something Jeanie and I just discussed with her yesterday)  I asked for a second opinion from Dr Parten...which I put no faith in, but want it on record that both doctors knew of Dad's weight loss and our concern for it.(This is for us...God forbid something happens, I want it recorded that we asked the professionals about the weight loss.) They have added a supplement drink for diabetics...glycerna similar to ensure and she was so proud of the fact that they had fed Dad a donut because he'd asked for it.  I'm like you better feed him all the damn donuts he wants...  I forgot to ask about the urine sample and if they got one today to run a follow up UTI check.  After arguing/fighting and generally copping a piss poor attitude with her, I didn't even think about the UTI. Jeanie will check tomorrow when she goes.  Darah also started some BS about "well we've had to move some people do to your Dad's behavior."  I set her straight about Mr Lane and she said there were other incidences....she claimed she had told Jeanie and when I called her on that,she started back pedaling saying maybe it was Pat to which I said we have a blog and this is all news to me. She started doing the backstroke then saying, well we don't bother the family for everything...more BS! Bottom line, I told her no medication until we've had a chance to research/discuss the meds and get the second opinion from Dr Parten and then we'd let her know what we wanted to do.  I don't understand why they can't start out with a Tylenol PM or some other OTC drug instead of going straight to a prescription.  I don't want Dad on a psychotic drug...I don't really want him on a sleeping pill, but I do agree he needs to rest at night.  I called Jerry and ask him to check with his head nurse at Spring Creek..unfortunately, he didn't get a chance to call this afternoon...he went from meeting to meeting and home and now back out the door for a meeting.  Judy, maybe you could ask Leisa and Pam ask Jody for their opinions on these drugs.   Ok, Love you and I'll let you know if I hear from Nurse Ratchet again!!   Jamie
