7 p.m…

Today Irene’s temperature vacillated between 98.2 and 99.1… we’re obviously monitoring it very closely.

However, you know she’s feeling slightly better when…

• She’s concerned about a potted plant in the garden that is “tilted” and wants me adjust it until it’s just right

• She tells me to put a “tickler” in my Outlook calendar that reminds me to kiss her every 15 minutes!!!

• She’s concerned that I’m being neglected and wants to get back to keeping the house in order.  She insisted in preparing a light meal for me this evening.

Irene is incredibly weary and trying to conserve energy.  We’re thinking that the dialysis center will check her white blood count (WBC) again on Monday to determine which way it’s trending…and hopefully it’s moving upward.  We hope the antibiotic treatment is going to be effective.

Thanks for caring,

Dave
