Update on my husband

He is still pretty sick but better today. He had a great day. He ate for the first time since Saturday. His temp was normal all day. The nurses came in and looked at his wound and it looked nasty to me but they said it was looking better.

Then at 7:30 tonight, his temp spiked up again. Right after that, the infectious diseases doc came in to see him. With the temp spiking up while he was there. So of course he can't come home tomorrow.

:mad:

And his dip shit boss called and said he needed to come to the office and fill out paperwork so they can file the workers comp claim. Which part of hospitalized do you suppose the asshole doesn't understand? He also hasn't bothered to come by to see him. I don't remember if I mentioned this in my post yesterday but when he got hurt, the boss told the guy he works with to take him to the ER and then when they got there, the boss called and told the other guy to go file an incident report and then get back to work. NO ONE CALLED ME. So my husband sat in the ER for 6 hours ALONE. I called his union today and they want him to file a formal complaint with human resources. I also emailed an attorney (a DU friend:) ) to get a name of a workers comp attorney.

My boss came by to see him. Hubby and I both work for the same employer. My boss said it is "disgraceful" the way his boss is treating him. She didn't advise him to file the complaint with HR but she admitted we had every right to be very angry. She did say that she had talked to one of the top brass (second in command) and that woman is supposedly going to call us to apologize. Of course I know better than to hold my breath waiting for that phone call.

No wonder people file 'frivolous' lawsuits.
