If you have ever had the chills so bad that your teeth chatter and you shake and shake even though you have at least ten blankets on, you know that something is wrong. That happened to Bill last night about bed time and then again this evening. We thought the chills might be connected to the leg wound from his varicose veins that has been oozing a clear watery fluid out of it for a couple of days. Or it could be several other blown out of proportion ideas I came up with. Bill came home from work early because he was feeling dizzy. (Bill never leaves work early or takes a day off if he is sick) He even stopped at the doctor to have his leg checked out. Amazing !!!!! He did have some tests run. His bp was good. He doesn't have diabetes. He had no fever, but he does now 102. They collected blood and a sample of the fluid coming out of his leg. But the wound is not infected. And the doctor recommended a vascular surgeon, and gave him a prescription for a diuretic. Really they don't know what is wrong. I think it is just a flu bug and the leg thing is a separate matter. He has always been so healthy, so its just out of the ordinary.
Because Bill came home from work early he was able to attend a meeting with me to help Austin get the services he needs to help him in school. I couldn't believe that it took us two and a half hours. We are glad to have a plan worked out to help him.
Last night at Dinner Lydia fell asleep even before everyone made it to the table. School just wears her out. Usually she takes a nap right after she gets home, but I've been trying to keep her up, hoping that she'll go to bed easier.
I forgot to mention on Monday Jessica received a bouquet of flowers from Bill and me for her birthday. She has some fun plans with her friends tomorrow!!
