Long Weekend
First I was glad to see everyone who came to PG for Easter. Sorry we didn't get to stay long. Mick gets tired and bored easily. It was great seeing you though.Anyhow this is the scoop; Mick has been having some balancing issues more than he was before, been squinting a lot again along with some other symptoms so I planned on calling the Dr. on Monday (today) He's been so cross with people . Anyhow , I also have learned that he had a bad rash or something on his stomach, bruises on feet and arms too. Along with those issues he has become very emotional again but not only emotional his thinking process has become worse. When he good moments they are really good but then we had moments like Saturday where I was afraid he was going to be arrested....went to Wal Greens to exchange something and as I was at customer service Mick showed up behind me from the candy section with a RIPPED open Whopper box shoveling them in his mouth. Oh it gets better later that day we were at Wal-mart and he found a box of Rice Krispie treats...Yep you got it! He walked over got the box and started opening it up because he wanted one...the concept of having to pay first and against any law to open before purchasing just was not in his thinking process. SO, I called the doctor today and the rash he said give him benadryl, the memory and the balance thing the Dr. said he needed to up his steroids again. He said that they weaned him to 2 x a day to see how he was going to do but because of his actions shows that he needs to be put back to 3x a day. His final words to me was "It's going to get worse before it gets better" needless to say that is not something someone wants to hear. I love the Dr. but that was so hard to hear although I do know it ;doesn't mean that I want to hear it out loud. He also said that he will prob. keep Mick for a few extra days with the next surgery.Well, that's it for now but on a happy laugh of the day... He can't button his pants and some of us had a good laugh at the dinner table last night when he lifted his shirt when I asked if he ever buttoned them back up.Got to laugh!
