I took a break earlier (around 6) and went home to determine what I needed from Lowe’s to fix our plumbing problem. (I know, Mikie’s plumbing is giving me a fit too, but I have to get this drain cleared in our shower or nobody is going to be able to stand being around me. I’m kidding actually, as we have been using the shower at Lorraine’s mom’s old house next door.) Lorraine was up to it so we went out together to buy the new drain pipes at Lowe’s and then went over the Chili’s for supper. We had to wait a while but it was good. We are at the hospital now, and Lorraine is having a dizzy spell so she is taking a break in the reclining chair. This thing has been up here the whole time and I just figure out how to make it recline yesterday. It’s really cool, all electric. It even rises up so it is easier to get out of.
Anyway, Mikie is in his new bed and it is rolling him back and forth. We had to situate him around so he wouldn’t slide over to the side but he looks real good. It rolls him from side to side on a cycle of only a few minutes. He is tolerating it quite well, I think it is going to make a difference. The suction is on low and it is not removing a lot of bile, so I think it is moving things on down as it should. He is as comfortable as I have seen him in some time. He looks so peaceful that I could sit here and watch him all night. Lorraine is sound asleep in the chair. I am listening to music from BBN on the computer as I write this. God is treating me wonderfully right now.
