I failed to find something to take a picture of.
I was very angry at the doctor this morning. He had promise to get back to us in 48 hours or put a prescription in at the drugstore for dad to try. Dad seemed to be worse this morning. He goes back to bed after having several bad trips to the bathroom. He does not want to talk so that worries me. Could he be having a stroke? Should I call the ambulance? When I threaten this he gets angry at me. I know how he feels.
I call the doctor but cannot talk to him until Thursday. I leave a message with his nurse. I expected some response. I am very disappointed that he has failed to keep his word. If he does not know what to do he should send dad to a specialist.
I had planned a trip to the bird store to get some bird seed. It is a lovely store and Spenser is allowed in..
Dad started to improve a little.
I wonder if I am making the best use of my energy?
I am trying to learn about mindfulness so I can be calm and content and open.

If dad is worse take some time to look over everything he are and drank over the past 24-48 hours.
What was different?
Did he eat later?
Did he eat more?
How much pumpkin pie did he have over the last few days?
There is not likely to be any miracle cure that Dr M. is going to provide, especially if dads diet continues to eat what brings on these bad days.
The sun is supposed to come out tomorrow, that always helps.

There is much about the health system that can easily make one irritated.
I am glad that Dad eventually got a bit more energy. You are very right to be concerned is he is not talking and doesn't want to get out of bed.
It is unlikely to be the full answer, but I think Dad has to probably eat less (particularly less of things that might trigger his bowels) and drink more water.
Love Rick
Sad to hear the dr didn't do as promised. Is it the new cholesterol medicine you want? Don't forget to eat more fiber
Another hot day here in Melbourne.Canucks game on tomorrow!
