Update on Update on Jim

Picture of Paul and Friend and Jim happy...(a tad inebriated, actually)hehehehe. Anyway, Jim saw the Doctor, and got a new prescription which seems to be working. He goes every Monday until they are sure the drug is actually working. If not, then it's on to the daily needle. Meanwhile, he's feeling good and his weight has stabilized..at the lower weight...sob sob sob. Now I'm jealous!!!
The weather here has been absolutely beautiful....hot but not muggy. Must be making up for our lousy May.
Well, Evil Dick won Big Brother..Woo Hoo!!!!! (I thought he was handsome). And now, tonight, begins Survivor - China ooooooooohhh!! Scary.
Anyhoo, talk to you all later.
Bye for now,
Marsha....wonderful Mother, wonderful Daughter, Best Sister hahahahahahahaha.

Update on Jim

Hi all...long time no blog for me. But I figured this was the easiest way to update everybody all at once on Jim's condition.
The Jim you see in this picture is not the Jim you would see now (however..I am the same, sob sob sob).
He has lost over 20 pounds in a very short time.
So..he was in hospital while I was in Nfld, and I had to come home early (I was really enjoying myself too!). However, he conned his way out of the hospital by making several promises to the Doctors (plural...one a specialist).
Needless to say, he is not exactly keeping those promises, so I am a little stressed.
Apparently, he has to eat three meals a day (which he is doing), and he has to check his blood three times a day (okay..doing), and he has to keep a little active (doing). However...if his blood goes over 23 he must go to the hospital immediately....last night it was 24!!!!!!!!!
Did he go to the hospital? No!!!!!
Did I bug him and nag him? Yes!!!!!
But, this morning his blood was down to 13...still not good, but better. At lunch it was 18, and this evening it was 15...so what can I say?
He's feeling really good....he's happy I'm home. I think he was afraid to be alone.
He keeps kissing and hugging me!!! Cool, eh? I love it. I guess he got a bad scare.
Well, he has a Doctor's appointment on Monday and I am going with him. I have a list of questions to ask, cause he doesn't know what to ask, and he doesn't remember what the Dr. says.
So, that's the story on Jim.
Now, about me....I was having a great time in Nfld. I love those people over there so much......even the little tiny cranky cute one...hehehehehehehe. I was talking about Michelle! Raina is a doll.
Caitlyn is just wonderful.....What great kids!!!!!!!
Ok, well I guess that's it for now.
I only hope people are still reading blogs.
Take care all
Talk to you later.
Love, Marsh
