The Week

This is monday & the beginning of a new week. Last week went by fast and quite interesting. i was doing the washing downstairs on monday & as I went to get the clothes at ten p.m., the phine rang. It was the 90 year old neighbor lady & said she was bleeding bad. I rushed over & she sure was. There were pools of blood all over & a mess of blood on the rugs. A vien in her leg had ruptured it looked like. I wrapped it with a towel and called 911. They arrived in about 5 minutes & after the day in the hospital she came home all bandaged up.
On thursday we headed to Ithaca to pick up some MRI films for Evelyn to take to back surgeon in Rochester. After picking them up we decided to try to find the nursing home where my dear friend Dorothy Wickes was staying. She will be 100 in a three months & I worked with her for several years. She was also a dear friend of my Mother's. After running around for an hour we found the place & had a good visit with her. Although confined to wheelchair, or bed her mind was very good and we talked a lot about the past. This took a lot out of Evelyn & was good of her to go along with my seeing Dorothy.
We are now waitng to find out when we can see the surgeon in Rochester, as Evelyn is in a lot of pain most of the time. Our family Doctor is working on this & will hopefully have answers tomorrow.
I had a surprise over the weekend, as my seizures returned. I take meds for that & usually is under control. Just scary when it happens as I am out of it if they are severe, & luckily only one was. Hopefully that was it & no more. we did little over the weekend because of that. Evelyn's grand-daughter came on friday & took her thru the Mall in her wheelchair, which was a treat for her.
Have been watching baseball games at night all week, my Yankee's. All for now from and old retired Dad & Grampa-
