I did not get much sleep last night so have not functioned real well today. Got Bob's labs, saw the doctor. Bought a snack at the grocers, and put fuel in the car. Also stopped at the laundromat with a load. This is not the order we did things, just the order I remember. Bob's kidney function is improving, slightly. He has dropped 5.5 lbs. that he could not afford to lose this week. Due to his ongoing stomach troubles the doctor wants him to start each day with Immodium. I need a bed time snack then I will be gone. I will have toast with cinnamon and sugar on it. I am still hearing the occasional fire works. Have a good night.

Days like this one can be difficult when we are tired out. I'm sorry to hear about Bob's weight loss. Good news about the kidney function though. I hope you can both rest tonight.

I really hope that Imodium works for him. My sister starts off her mornings taking that too. I remember she lost a bunch of weight until she started doing that. She felt terrible, but loved looking thin. Bob, of course, doesn’t need to look any thinner. You’re a toughie. I know you’re doing what you need to do, but you’re still pretty awesome.

I really hope Bob starts gaining weight again. Pretty got her teeth cleaned today and checked in with them about getting dentures for herself. They set up a payment plan for her for anything Medicaid won't cover. I go in to get a tooth pulled next week, I think. That tooth I shattered last January. It doesn't hurt and I can chew with it so I'm not too worried about it. Pretty is having trouble with iron and potassium again. She's still not getting enough in her diet. The doctor told her to drink Pedialyte and take iron tablets again. She's been feeling run down and tired all the time. Hopefully, that fixes it for her. I don't want her back in the hospital again. No fireworks here this evening/night. I hope you have a good night.
