Our Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson disease journey...meds..november 11

-



Today I took hubby to the doctor to have his feet checked. A Podiatrist, because his feet keep swelling. The nurses took hubbies blood pressure and it was 179/90 and both nurses were a little nervous about it...they said "its to high" .I said "it's ok...that is good for him". The doctor was young but very kind. He listened and then said...with your hubbies problems and meds he is taking the least of our worries is a little foot swelling. So we had him do a few things and left. Hubby is resting. I have been waiting for a phone call....I was going to give it until Thursday to see if they were going to call. But impatient me I called them. Good thing I did....the receptionist was so nonchalant...like its no big deal...ok we will set you up for a tour. Just a noncommittal attitude. Me I want to reach through the phone and slap him...'listen buster this is my husband we are talking about ...get with the program"...but instead I hang up and call daughter...I was fuming.....we talked and prayed together and then I called sons....they settled me down. So hard ....so hard. Big decisions and in myself I think the whole world should stop and put hubby first and get it together for him. But he is not alone in this crazy world with problems. Anyway will let you all know what our next step will be and if things work out. Prayers appreciated because we want God's perfect will in all of this. God bless...Check out this list of rules....yep ...drives me crazy because I have a real hard time abiding by them...but I do keep reading them...some just haven't taken hold of me yet....I fail....

Removing and replacing our old pathway

-

 We moved into our home about 15 years ago at that time we decided to place a walkway down through the yard to a firepit.  Our family loves to sit around the backyard fire and roast hotdogs and marshmallows.  We haven't done much to the walkway except spray it once in a while with weed kill but today we decided it was time to remove and repair.  So we began to dig out the bricks..it was amazing how some were buried and some were broken.  They all were beginning to sink down deeper and deeper. There was a lot of moss that had even grown over the top of them.  But hubby and I worked together and got them all dug up.  The pathway went from the deck to the firepit ring.  All of these bricks have been recycled we would watch for free ones.  Sometimes just driving down the road there would be bricks with a sign take all you want.  So some of these bricks have different says on them.  We also enjoy using our dutch ovens....

  I don't know if any of you facing these diseases have these problems, but I need to talk with the neurologist for some answers...mercy. Hubby has this crazy idea that he needs to search the house for things. I purchase a new vacuum because the belt broke on the old one. I got the same one but decided to keep one for downstairs and one for upstairs. So I put the old one way back in the furnace room until I can fix it and the new one up front easy to get to. Hubby is determined to climb back there and always get the old one. He moves the new one to get to the old one. I hide some shampoo that I wanted to give to daughter as it doesn't work good for hubby and I. He finds it somehow and starts using it. I hide some spray paint its the kind that will change a object into a mirror...he found it and sprayed it on lumber in the yard. Mercy...drives me crazy. Just saying....I told him we are going to Nampa on Thursday...to see the doctor. He got really mad that night at me b...
