Dear Friends,
Today went well compared to usual. Lydeana had a headache and the half of her body on the side of the injection hurt when she went to bed last night and when she woke up this morning. She didn’t have a fever this time but slept half the day and woke up feeling some better. The injection site is a much angrier red than usual because they didn’t cover it at all this time except with a bandaid. She is still a little stiff and off balance this evening, but none the worse for wear.
The truly odd thing is that the last couple of times we came down we would watch TV before going to bed and she ended up liking a show called Bones. Just another graphic forensics show with typical plots and character dynamics. The odd part is that throughout this process she hasn’t been very interested in much of a bodily graphic nature for obvious reasons. The wind took out the satellite during the climax of the show and she actually called the front desk to complain.
The show is interesting for me because I understand what they’re talking about in the parts relating to anatomy. The sad part is I don’t understand what they’re talking about in scenes with character relationships. No wonder I was scared of girls in high school.
Since we didn’t go anywhere today we were not forced to sit in front of a flat screen with CNN as the institutional banner so I am ignorant of Tigers plight today. Thank Goodness!
Again, thank you for your prayers.
Love,
Charlie
