Whew- this day went fast. Dave has been running a very low grade temp all weekend and looks like he has another UTI. I talked with the NP this morning, told her we are ready for hospice and about Dave's symptoms. He's back on Cipro. Hopefully will feel better in a couple days. It was a cool but sunny fall day. Dave didn't get outside today...maybe tomorrow. Joni and mom helped today. Dave's mom and sister Al came by late afternoon. It continues to be hard at times to move Dave from the bed to the chair. Today I realized the wheelchair sides come off- IT IS SO MUCH EASIER!!! Wow, what a silly willy. Still, it's really a 2 person job and Dave seems a little weaker every day to me. He is eating...still small meals, but eating.
I'm overwhelmed with the love and kindness surrounding us. And tears are part of every day now. I already miss my Dave, the one who held me and put funny hats on his head and called for his dogs every morning. I still get very sweet kisses. Thanks for supporting us through the ups and downs.
peace, love, groove
Love to you both.
