T-Minus Three Days
And Counting

We have had a great weekend and today we are just going through the routine of the day. June’s sisters left early Sunday morning and left us with plenty of goodies in the fridge. What a time we had with them this weekend. Ernie and I thought we were giving mom the pamper treatment, but with the sisters here we just stepped back and they took over. Mother received a pedicure, shampoo, curl enhancer and some nice outfits to wear. June really felt good and was so appreciative of all they did.

Mother had a tough bout with nausea today. There just didn’t seem to be anything that could ease the nausea. We tried multiple medications and finally we were able to settle it down. Mom has carried a bit of fever today and the home health nurse told us to keep an eye on it. It has not gone over 99.7. On Wednesday, June has two doctor appointments, one at 10:00am and one at 1:30pm. The orthopedic will make the final call as to whether or not mom will be allowed to return to Newnan. All signs point to a positive affirmation of our departure from Lexington.

Ernie is doing well. He has given 110% of himself and sometimes it shows. He likes to go out first thing in the morning to get the newspaper and sometimes surprises us with breakfast. Unfortunately later in the day Ernie had gone to the pharmacy to pick up some medication for June. Apparently his knee gave out on him and he took a spill as he was going up some steps. He says he’s OK and that he caught himself before he hit the floor very hard. I checked him out and he does seem OK. I’ll see how he’s doing tomorrow.

There’s not a lot of additional information available to offer you at this time. We’ll just continue to pray that mother’s improvement will continue and we’ll be outta here on Wednesday. With any kind of luck we should be back by Thursday afternoon.
