April 3 Ruth

Joan and Jean arrived around 4:30pm, Jean was still not 100%, Joan said in the car she was in and out of lucidity. It was still really difficult for Jean to form a thought a speak that thought. I changed her clothes and got her into bed. She wanted Mexican since that initially was our plan to go to Macayo's. So I placed an order. Jean ate very well, Bill not so much. He had a late lunch and therefore was not that hungry when dinner arrived. Jean claimed the food was perfect and she really enjoyed it. She went back to bed after that. The TV was on till 9pm, but there was little conversation between Bill and Jean.

Both slept very well despite my constant interruptions throughout the night. I checked on Jean continuously to make sure she was aware and still able to speak. Bill slept until 9:30am !!! Jean slept until 10am. Both had breakfast and Jean is talking much better today. Her speech is back to normal and she looks good.

Christine stopped by to say hello and check on her mother. She brought a beautiful bouquet of roses from her garden. Please make sure we wash and get her vase back to her, promised it would be returned.

The pharmacy stopped by last night to deliver items I ordered on Tuesday. I ordered vani cream for both, icy hot, vicks and depends. The vanicream, icy hot and vicks arrived but not the Depends. They should be delivered sometime today or tomorrow.

Please note: Jean has a UTI infection, we are expecting a delivery of Levaquin and Lovenox. She needs to take the anti biotic as prescribed and she needs a shot of Lovenox for the next 3 nights. I called Farroqui's office this morning to ask about the shots and he instructed his staff that she needs the shots for 3 days, not 10 as in TIA's prior.

I made a follow up appointment with Farroqui's for Monday at 1pm. She needs to go to this appointment it is mandatory. Please ask Farooqui or a prescription for a lighter wheel chair for Bill and a Chair that has a remote that rises and falls. I made a note of this particular chair in last weeks blog. Joan also thought it would be a good idea.

I made a Protime appointment with the Coumadin clinic to have Bill's INR checked on Tuesday at 1pm. I will take him. Tuesday April 8th

I made appointments for Bill and Jean to have their teeth cleaned and asked the secretary to send over a prescription for Bill, expect that delivery also. He needs to be on an antibiotic prior to this appointment because of his Pacemaker. Jean will also be prepped for her final crown fitting on the same day. May something

I made an appointment with Sears to come and look at the refrigerator, Jean would like the buttons on the ice/water panel to be replaced. April 8 between 8-5pm

Please place Jean's antibiotics in the boxes when they are received.
