Hi Melody,
I don't know what to say after reading your post. That is so sad. You raised your son and this is how you get thanked ??? Enjoyed reading about YOUR multi-lingual talents, your prior work, and some of your many accomplishments. Glad you have some friends and social outlet but it would really be nice if you had some household help. Wishing you less pain with your arthritis and other ailments. Sure hope Alan continues to have nothing but good news and easy flows. |

Well tonight was interesting. I went to Dunkin, all the gang were there. Alan was coming. I told them "Alan is coming' and all the gals were clapping (I kid you not, the guy has fans). I even made a video and if I can get it on youtube, I'll share it.
He was beaming, and he sat down on his walker next to our landlord and all our neighbors and friends. We sat there just socializing. Only for about 90 minutes but we got out of the house. And now he's sleeping and I'm on the computer just watching movies (which I love to do on youtube). Thank god for youtube. It has everything. If I ever figure out how to get the video uploaded (I'm usually able to do this), I'll post it here if it's allowed. It just shows Alan walking into Dunkin Donuts and everyone getting excited to see him. It did him a world of good. I will never be able to get help. So I don't cook much. We get meals on wheels I(thank god for that) and I keep things simple. At our age it's the best we could hope for. You have a good night and thanks for listening. Melody

Well done you for putting the paramedics in their place. It's an indictment of the system when we reach the point of DIY doctoring. I enjoy reading your stories and love your sense of humor - not only do you always keep your own spirits up but you raise ours as well. Take care and look after your own health. |

Fever is down, chest xray shows pneumonia but till he pees they cant rule out urinary tract infection. So pray that he urinates. He is so tired. He sleeps and is snoring. Will update, melody
