Day 325 - Family Heads Back & Fired 3rd Nurse

Saturday, November 20th, 2021

Today is Aunt Robin's Birthday! 🎂🥳🍰🎁🎈🎉

The family got on the road to Jax around noon. James got his snuggles in on a lazy Saturday. The boys dressed up in their matching bandanas. Today in the mail we received some awesome custom onesies from "Aunt" Megan. Look out for those in the days to come!

We let the staffing agency know that we did not want to continue with the nurse we had on Tuesday. She was a danger to James and more work for Mom! They completely understood. So that is 3 nurses in 2.5 months that we've had to let go! Now we are down to one and she is good. She's currently working M,W, F but there is a possiblity she may be picking up a few hours on Tu and Th which would be ideal. You may be thinking, well you don't have anyone to back up if she calls out! That is correct! Instead of having the staff agency send us some random person for one day that Mom would spend the whole day training it is easier just to handle everything on our own. If we had a doctor's appointment on a day that she were to call out and Dad could not make it we would simply reschedule. 1.) Mom would not feel comfortable going to an appointment with a brand new person on their first day.  2.) The staffing agency has a really hard time finding backups. Nurses don't want to work PRN. They want a consistent full-time schedule of (3) 12-hour shifts.

P.S. If you read the blog and are supporting James through his journey we would love you to participate in our video montage of everyone singing his lullaby. Please see the James Weston lullaby post for more details. ❤️
