Sunday, October 12th

These are some new thank you cards I’ll leave for Khun Nong when she cleans my place.

PNGEgg

The last few days have been stressful. My husband spent the last two days in the ER at the hospital for double pneumonia, high blood pressure, high fever, and low blood oxygen.

I have trouble looking at this objectively for lots of reasons – low blood oxygen was what I died of TWICE in the hospital in Arkansas in February. It scares me. I’m seeing a definite pattern of symptoms in my husband. He was in the emergency room for the same symptoms in August.

He isn’t eating enough. The doctor wanted to put in a permanent stomach tube. Harvey and I have always been against things like this when our time comes, so we have said no. They ARE using a nasal tube right now, though, to supplement what he is able to eat normally. I’m trying to prepare myself, but it’s difficult. We’ll go see him tomorrow.

Yesterday we had a quiet day, so we were able to decompress a bit. I worked on my jigsaw puzzle, painted the thank you cards, wrote posts for the blog, read a bit, did my laundry, etc. It was nice to move from one activity to the next with no particular time frame. I almost took a nap, but my brain was too busy to allow me. Maybe today…

I hope that the weather is calming down wherever you are and that you are able to get outside and enjoy fresh air, sunshine, wonderful temperatures, and glorious sights provided by Mother Nature.
