Hard Night

I seem to be on the other side of this cold, but then stonebender got sick. He was having a lot of problems coughing, as usual and didn't think he could go to bed last night and lay flat. Finally about 3 am we decided to give it a try. Instead of actually laying in bed, we kept him in the sling and attached to the lift. I only reclined him to a point he felt comfortable and was ready to get him upright anytime he felt he might choke. He asked for his bi-pap mask to be put on, hoping it would open us his nasal passages. Until about 6:30 am, we did the dance of down a little, up a little, legs on the bed, legs off the bed, sips of water and repeat. Then he fell asleep. At 10:30 am he woke up and asked for some water and to be lower more. He's actually almost in his regular sleeping position and he's SLEEPING. Blessed normal sleep. With the pneumonia last year he went days without sleeping. The sleep deprivation raised his already high anxiety even higher. I really didn't want him to get to that point again.

At least all of this held off until after our return from Vegas. Stonebender's wheelchair stopped working the 2nd day we were home and I was in the full throes of fever and pain. If both of these had occurred a couple of days earlier, I don't think I could have driven home, let alone push stonebender around the hotel. Good news, it was just his battery and he has a new one and all is well. Now if only we could get our bodies back into a working state so easily.

New Addiction

Dbubley and I went to Costco yesterday. At one of the demo tables they were giving out samples of a shrimp wonton soup. One taste and I was hooked. Each little bowl holds 5 lovely shrimp filled wontons. Three minutes in the microwave and it's slurping time. I had one last night and I had one for breakfast. I thought I was going to have these for lunch next week, but at this rate there won't be any left by the time I return to work on Wednesday. Yum, Yum, YUMO.
