Day 63

Tuesdays ,we now spend at the apartment. It is really great to have the whole day to “get things done” (things like laundry, cleaning, setting up the weeks’ meds) (such an exciting life!!!).
Last night we had huge thunderstorms and flash flooding, so it was an added relief not to have to get to the ATC today. The sidewalks were still covered with water when I got up this morning and the maintenance crew was out picking up the branches and leaves that had fallen during the storm. The temperature, today, is 93,hot and humid—that will be the trend for the next few days. Tonight’s walk will probably be short because Stan will tire more easily from the humidity.
We have an early day tomorrow –our appointment at the ATC is at 7:15am—so we will have to catch the 6:30 bus. That also means I will have to take Stan’s 7am meds with us and also he needs to have some food with his meds,so I’ll pack a snack too.
My in-laws are coming tomorrow afternoon/evening. Thursday will be their “in-service” to all Stan’s care—it is a bit daunting to anyone just seeing it for the first time. Some of the other wives and I “meet” in the laundry room and say how much we are amazed at all the “stuff” we have had to learn!Stan sleeps most of the days we don’t go to ATC/fatigue is part of the “cure” for this illness
