Today has been a quiet day. Betty and Devona made the trip to the Brown Cancer Center and Raymond and I stayed home. We took the PT Cruiser out for a spin to see if he could hear "the new sound." We went 65 MPH and didn't hear anything. I guess he'll have to wait until he can drive before he is sure there isn't a concern.
Dennis got a good night's sleep after most of a night in a straight back chair. He did a good job watching out for Raymond.
I must be becoming a drug pusher. I keep feeling like someone who has had surgery should be feeling discomfort but he keeps refusing even Tylenol. His constant refrain, " No, it doesn't hurt. I can't wait to see that doctor to tell him I didn't even know he did the surgery!" Devona tried to tell him today that he talked to the doctor in pre op, but Raymond likes his story better and he's sticking to it.
The incision is beautiful! Raymond was in very good hands. His next appointment is on the 15th with the surgeon for a check up. I predict good results. We really appreciate Dr. Alankar's office scheduling the surgery as soon as possible.
Betty hasn't shown signs of renewed energy yet. We're waiting and hoping. There's always tomorrow. Betty has at least one more week of radiation and chemo. There may be a few added days tacked on the following week. We will then wait for our appointment with Dr. Martin, the surgeon, on Feb 28th.
I'm taking off for the weekend and Sharon is moving in. She's been doing wonderful cooking lately. I can't wait to see what's in the refrigerator when I return.
Raymond could probably use some chances to get out this week since he can't drive. Call him for a date. Please!!!!!!!!!!!
