Doctor Day


John was over first thing this morning to pick up GK. They were out the door by 8:00. Gk had an apt with his hemotologist to check his red blood count and general well being. I was pretty sure they would end up doing a transfussion and be gone all day, so I was happy to see them come through the door before noon! Gk's levals are still holding strong. As the doctor explained to John, they can not cure the cancer, but they can supress it. Thats good enough for me.
John also had a talk with GK about driving. John told him he would be over once a day and if GK has anything to do, they can go together. I don't think GK was thrilled at this idea, but agreed he could at least come over and he would think about letting John go with him to town.
It sure is hard letting go of control. Even little bits at a time.

Grammy is feeling good today, although she is still pretty tired. I wonder if just being on the anti-biotics may contribute to that. She got up and got dressed (sometime during the night she had taken off her pajamas and put them back on inside out) and then came to the table for breakfast. I put a couple eggo waffles down for her and she was THRILLED. Waffles for breakfast, my land, this must be a special day! I told her it was and she deserved to have waffles every morning. She smiled and laughed and told me I shouldn't have gone to all the trouble of making waffles. Do you think it was really a "lie" for letting her think I made the waffles? I mean I did open the package and skillfully remove them from the toaster at just the right moment when they were just crisp and not yet burnt.
After breakfast we watched some t.v, and I talked to Kelly on the phone. They are enjoying the weather in Texas and the Boy's were doing their homework. I hope they can come for a visit during springbreak.

I talked to Julie later and she said she would come down for a week while we enjoy a gift from them. An all expense paid cruise to Mexico.
That's not true, but it doesn't hurt to plant a seed.
She did say they would be down again sometime though.

Wyatt is home from school today and we have his teacher conference at 4:00. Good planning on the teachers part for scheduling after my program. He told me to expect to hear great things, but not be dissapointed if I don't. I guess he belives in covering all his bases.

Mike is off early today, but he usually goes to the shop and works till' my show is over. He really is a good husband.

I'm done.
