REASURRED

Yes we had a snowy day.

We both felt good going to bed last night as dad had taken three doses of his medicine along with the Imodium.  What happened was one of the worse nights ever starting 2 o'clock and continuing for hours.

We were assured that going to see the doctor would help solve our problem.  Dad felt so losing in the morning he did not want to go.  In fact he refused.  Carol had offered to drive so I phoned to see if she was still available.

Dad was very happy to see her and we new we needed help.

The doctor talked a lot with Carol saying dad had not done some of his tests and the doctor was frustrated with his failure to do so.  He then reassured them we would look at all dad's test and order a new prescription .

The trouble was he ordered the same stuff.  Dad does not want to take the powdered drink as he thinks it makes him worse.

We are to try it for four or five days and then let him know.  We are to let Sandra and Carol know too.

We feel very unhappy with this results that we have already been trying.

Dad is willing to do another poo test if that will help as the last one was no good.

The beauty of the snow usually lifts our spirits but we were both too tired.  I was afraid to go for a walk in case I fall.

We are looking to order some meals on line later tonight.  Carol has set it up for us.

It appears that dad will have to live with this and do his best to keep it under control.

That is a laugh as everything now seems more and more out of our control.

I will do my part with checking with you guys every day to get a track what is happening.

So, get a clean page ready and start writing down what dad eats and drinks.
