A Brief Scare This Morning

This morning gave me a little scare. The doctor came in and was concerned about my progress. Namely the very small amounts of liquids I am able to drink.

He sent us immediately to the hospital. Which we were just checking out and heading to the airport. But he explained they really needed to make sure I didn’t have a serious problem.

So at the hospital they had to again sedate me. They ran a camera down to check for leaks or any other issues. Thank goodness everything was ok. I was badly swollen though. So they did something to widen my area to swallow.

It was very scary for a few hours. But thankfully with a mad dash in a taxi we made it to the airport. I had to be in wheel chair which I didn’t really like but on the good side we were able to bypass the long lines.

Remember I said yesterday that I had over done it. Well I paid a price for it and I have learned my lesson. Things are great but it could have been a disaster.

We are home now! I am very happy to be here and see Kalon. Tucker comes home tomorrow.

I have until Thursday with only clear liquids. However then I am on all liquids. This isn’t much difference to me.

Anyway I will be taking it very easy this week. Probably won’t be able to get much work done but Dennis seems to have everything running good.

I must get some protein in or I will continue to get weaker and weak.

Happy Birthday Mom!!!
