1. I'm not comfortable writing in this blog about other people's medical matters, so suffice it to say that today Ed had an important meeting with a doctor in Coeur d'Alene -- it was a very productive session -- and as a way to relax after it was over, we had made a plan on Monday to head over to the Spokane Tribe Casino.
Ed and Nancy returned to Kingston, I picked up Ed, and we rocketed over to Airway Heights.
Our first order of business was to go to the Caesar's Sports Book and each make a wager on the World Series. I like betting on underdogs, so I threw my modest bet down on the Yankees.
We both wore masks in the car. Ed's had a mild head cold lately and volunteered to join me wearing a mask. I left my mask on in the casino, wore vinyl gloves, and spent my entire session in the non-smoking section.
So, I felt like I protected myself well.
Had my luck only been as good!
I had one of those sessions where I just never got anything going.
Darn.
2. When I read my lab results on Monday, I thought the numbers looked stable and solid.
This afternoon, Nurse Jenn fired me a message telling me that the team saw my numbers as stable and solid, too.
My creatinine increased a tad, nothing big, and that moved Nurse Jenn to remind me to stay hydrated.
I agree with her.
I think I've been slacking a bit in this area.
I'll focus more on drinking plenty of water.
3. Late in the afternoon, Debbie texted me with a request: please cook a couple stips of bacon.
That meant one thing: Debbie was going to fix herself a bacon and tomato (no lettuce) sandwich for dinner.
I fixed myself another kind of sandwich, more in keeping with my current dietary restrictions.
It was simple: Trader Joe's egg salad with fresh basil and cucumber on Great Harvest's Harvest Blend bread.
It worked perfectly.
