Tuesday PM......August 7th

More sleep...a short walk...more upchuck...tears...more pills...a bit of dinner...more pills...more tears...things seem to be holding together.

A dinner of soft scambled eggs and tapioca pudding with gadorade seems to do the trick...what a short order chef I've become.

We've mapped out all the medications on a computer sheet so we can make sure all is handled well.

Linda's spending some time on the phone this evening..so that's good....a bit of laughter can be heard once in a while.

Linda's summary: "chalk this up to an ugly day...tomorrow will be a beautiful one"

You're gonna have the bad days and you're gonna have the good days. Hold onto the good and let the bad ones go.

I remember one time when my family was staying overnight in a hotel for one of dad's vintage races. Out of the blue, mom experienced one of those bad days and couldn't leave the room. She had to miss the whole day at the track. Got sick on the floor of the room and had to deal with having the hotel staff come clean it up. She was embarassed and frustrated, but she got through it. As did we.

This stuff can get ugly, but it's all for a good reason. Remember always, Linda, that you've got Dave by your side to take care of you, whatever may happen, and you've got tons of friends out here who are wishing you the best.

If it's any consolation, I vomited Monday and my body doesn't even have a good excuse for it. Perhaps it was an advance sympathetic vomit. ;-) Ha ha. Gross! Sharing way too much, in the hope it will make you laugh.
