Continuing the Recap of Our Time

Been a bit busy around here taking care of things and helping Les with eye drops, medicine, etc.  Hence the lapse in the recap accounting.  😊

We went to his post-op check Friday morning and the doctor said the surgery went well.  It was still too soon to tell how well Les' vision will test.  Some extra work was done to correct astigmatism. And if I understand it all correctly, some of that was caused by the corrective laser procedure that was done years ago.  At the time nothing was said about future complications if he developed cataracts and needed surgery.  Be aware.  But Les says his vision is clearing up and his eyes look good.  We are keeping up with all the drops.  Thank goodness for the spreadsheets!

We hit a "big snag" though when Les woke up Friday night, actually it was wee hours of Saturday morning, with a fever and some other symptoms.  The post-surgery instructions were to call if he had any fever, so I did.  And we were told to go to the ER even though the doctor did not think it had anything to do with the eye surgeries.  So off we went and got checked in.  After the initial flurry of activity while they got him checked in, we waited, and waited, and waited.  But eventually Les was diagnosed with a major UTI, he was given some intravenous antibiotics and a prescription for other antibiotics, we left for home.  This all really sapped his energy and strength and we have been in recuperation mode around here.  He is feeling better now and being careful.

As for me, I am doing okay and also being careful.  Still have the tenderness in my right hip area.  I have a PT session tomorrow morning.  I've been keeping up with things around here.  Got out and dead-headed the flowers and got them watered, filled the bird feeder, did a couple errands.  Even got some windows washed; I just couldn't stand them any longer.   Also got Finnigan to his annual check-up this morning.  Angus is scheduled to go on Friday.

Yesterday was our 52nd Anniversary.  We went to The Butcher's Son for dinner.  Traffic was awful getting down to Chesapeake and I called to let them know we were stuck in traffic.  Once we got there, dinner was excellent, service was very good, and we had a wonderful dinner.  So here are some pictures from our day.

My dessert last evening.
