Blog time 1630 sitting in office

Today is my easy Wednesday.  But it will be anything but easy.  Nancy has two Doctor appointment.

I did some calisthenics before breakfast.  After breakfast we headed to our 0930 appointment with our family doctor, Dr. Kutsche.  We did stop at Panera for a quick cup of coffee.

Dr. Kutsche is retiring at the end of the month.  He has been our family Doctor for years.  

He has prescribed medicines to help with Nancy’s memory loss.  The pills are helping.  We want to know if Nancy should upgrade  before he retires.  

Dr Kutsche said upgrades are not available.  We thanked him for the service he has provided, Bob and Nancy.  He did recommend a replacement Doctor for which we are grateful.

Our next Doctor’s appointment is at 1215.  Nancy has been having some headaches which our family Dentist thinks might be caused by infected teeth.  Today Nancy is having two root canals.

We headed to the Root Canal Specialists.  The total procedure took less than an hour.  The Doc said he thinks the root canals will solve the headache problem.  

Nancy is in considerable pain.  She is now on pain killers.  When we got home I made a quick trip to Meijer’s to get an antibiotic prescription.  

In addition to the medications Nancy is icing her cheek, 30 minutes ice, 30 minutes off, until bed time.  Then we are done with the icing.

We were provided instructions of what must be done for the next 24 hours.  We applied to the letter.

This afternoon I took out trash and did a load of laundry.  Typical Wednesday chores.

For dinner tonight I had some of the rotisserie chicken we purchased at Meijer’s.  It was good.

Watched the news while eating.  We then retired to the den.  Tonight we watched both an episode of “Murder in the Suburbs” and “Crownies”.  

Debbie FaceTimed this evening.  We brought her up to date.

Before bed Nancy took all her meds.  She is still groggy but the Doctors said it will take exactly (his words) 24 hours to get her system back to normal.

Noted a big bright Full Moon when checked Courtyard.  Another nice day ahead.
