Sunday, April 1

Well, the best intentions for ways to spend the day usually don’t materialize…

The day started out alright, with our morning ritual of Boost and Coffee.. and then we watched another Movie. This time the movie was Happy Feet. Cute movie.. After the movie, Kerrie and I started getting cleaned up and she didn’t look right, so took her temp.. low grade temp of 99.3, but enough for me to call Mom. Was told not to worry, but to keep an eye on it. She felt pretty cruddy all day, so I didn’t make her get out of bed or any of the other things I had intended for today.

Fever was still up, when Mom got home, and that’s when she noticed the color of the fluid in Kerrie’s Gal Bladder drain.. a very dark, reddish black. Definately not normal, so we have a call in to Henry Ford and we’re waiting for them to call us back. It may be nothing, and they may just take a look at it during her appointment tomorrow… but won’t know until we talk to them. Hopefully, they’ll just tell us to hold off until tomorrow.

Kerrie has a busy week ahead of her.. tomorrow is her visit to Henry Ford, Outpatient therapy on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and putting up with Mom and I on all the other days 🙂 She’s scheduled for a surgical consult, after this week, to see about having her Gal Bladder removed, but maybe they will push up the consult with this recent development.

Even though she’s feeling cruddy, she was in enough of a good mood to play a silly game of blowing kisses at each other while we were eating dinner… and trying to do it without Mom catching us.

Sometimes it’s fun to act like 2 year olds!

As soon as we hear something from Henry Ford we’ll let you know.
