On the Road with Dick and Jane
Dick is excited. Dick and Jane are going to take a trip to the store today. Look how excited Dick (AKA Pop) is to take another road trip with Jane (AKA Ma). Jane will most likely have to pry his fingernails off the arm of the recliner to get him out the door----can't you just see how happy Dick is to be spending more time with Jane in the car?
Had a crisis this am----the newspaper was not here when Pop woke up---Several trips to the driveway assured him it still had not arrived---I got in the car, went to Quik Shop, bought a newspaper and and Pop made me promise I would add a note to our newspaper bill that their service was terrible. Think our time together is rubbing off on him---he is becoming a"little Julie."
Pop started new pain medication yesterday---we are going to need to tweak it---as it did not last the entire 12 hours. Well use another med to bridge the 6 hour mark. Dr. Buth was emphatic about pain relief.
Will keep you updated on paper deliveries, store trips, and of course the most important---keeping Pop pain free. He stays in great spirits despite the short intervals of pain. He wants to get out, continue to be active, and to do what he wants to do.
