June thoughts

Changes are inevitable. Taking care of my husband, Dick, as he has many medical challenges. Lack of mobility, sleep, pain, etc. It is awful. So emotional for me. Just talked to Mom, she says she wishes she lived closer. Me too. The morning went well this morning. Helped Dick get ready with his compression socks, get up from the recliner chair, the one that he does not sleep in. He can't sleep in bed either so he stays up all night watching television. Soccer World Cup mostly. Got him comfortable at his computer desk. He went on-line and started calling the clinic and ordering pills. I took Millie for a nice long walk after having my coffee outside in the back garden. It is so peaceful in the early morning. Today, we go to the Dr., a follow-up appointment for Dick's DVT in his left leg. Wednesday, we see another Dr. at the clinic about lack of sleep and possibly getting a hospital bed and other medication to help Dick sleep and regain his strength. Alison is a wonderful daughter. She called yesterday, Father's Day, and the night before. Great catching up with her. Next week, we are supposed to go to Carmel. I hope we can. We had to cancel our May trip to England. Dick can't fly with the DVT. I hope that it is better by November, otherwise Kauai may not happen for us. You never know what life has in store. Taking it day to day. Fortunately, Dick has a positive attitude and keeps smiling, his mind is good too. Praying for miracles.
