OMG......where do I begin. I thought that Bill's physical condition was really tanking. However my medical training has once again misled my diagnosis.
Bill's MOM..his sister Shirley and brother-in-law Johnny came to visit us from Thursday till Sunday. Bill didn't know they were coming it was a surprise for him. Well the surprise was on me.
He perked up so much I couldn't believe it. He hardly slept during the day and stayed up for long hours after meals. He came out with some really funny things to say and really showed us he enjoyed himself.
Friday at bingo Bill played about half the games and was getting bored. Johnny had the idea for Bill to call. He called the numbers not only correctly but in a voice that we had not heard in a very long time. His voice was both strong and clear. He has been sand bagging. We now think he is depressed again. So I will ask the doctor what she recommends. Stronger dose or to try a new drug.
I have been doing just what he didn't need. Letting him sleep a lot and stay home. Assuming he needed the additional down time since he was so much weaker. Now I need to go in the opposite direction. We are hoping to get him going well enough for a trip home in December for Erin and Jock's wedding.
Thanks for coming Shirley, Johnny and especially Mom. You were just what we needed to get us going in the right direction again. Thanks for being here for us. Love Ya Lots
