You guessed it.....The Factor is on......we're in the shusshing AND dozing no-spin zone -- I'm watching the Food Channel and making a BLT panini and Ed is dozing in his recliner. He's pretty tired after being out and about all day and not getting any sleep last night. The hiccups actually kept him up most of the night!
He went to the office with me at 6:30 this morning! Tyler came and picked him up around 11 and they went to Camarillo for a quick peek at the hot rod progress. We ran a few errands this afternoon, pulled a couple of permits in Moorpark and got him just after 5. The hiccup medication (Thorazine) can make him sleepy too, so the combination of the meds and lack of sleep have really put him out for a bit I think. He has agreed to really lay low the next few days since the "nadering" window after the chemo is 4 to 11 days and we ABSOLUTELY don't want a repeat of the infection disaster he had to go through after the last chemo. I think as much sleep as he can get will be very good for him for a couple of days.
Yes, Jeanne, the apple pie a la mode reference was from When Harry Met Sally -- one of my fav silly
not-just-for-chicks flicks. We have a couple of movies to watch tonight - I think we must be some of the last people on earth who still drive to Blockbuster and rent movies.....so it will be a relaxing evening. I'm really hoping the hiccups won't return - it's actually very exhausting and uncomfortable for him. Enough already.....
Hope you all have a relaxing evening as well.
So happy to see you in the office this morning! Just like old times. Thank you so much for standing out back and talking with me this afternoon. Thanks also for asking about Dave, and letting me talk a bit. Your input is appreciated. I know the hiccups are exhausting, so doing that meant a lot. Keep fighting (as I know you will). My wish is for peaceful days ahead.....

Do I win a prize forthe right movie answer?? I transcribe for a doc whose first name is Sheldon, and that also always reminds me of When Harry Met Sally (which I won't repeat for the G-rated blog audience). Suffice to say, I crack up everytime I get him. Ed, I hope that you can have a less ambitious schedule today, and enjoy a bit of napping and relaxation. My love and prayers to both of you - jeanne
ReplyDeleteEd, congrats on going back to work --- even if it is only now and then, I am sure it feels good for you to get back into the office and some sense of normalcy from time to time. Plus it keeps the troops on their toes!
