Man plans, God laughs
when last i posted
i was about to fly off to the UK
i was worried about toonman
well
i was right to worry
and
i never made it to the UK
yup
man plans, god laughs
its one of my favorite sayings
never more so than these last 14 days
so to reassure you he's okay
there he is this past sunday
one
day
home
from
hospital
yup
the short-ish version is
after flights were cancelled thursday/friday
we thought maybe
we'd fly out on saturday evening
but
on saturday afternoon
toonman's 'cold' turned rather nasty
into
hospital he went
he did NOT have the flu
if he had
they'd have given him
some meds and sent him home
nope
he had a respiratory virus
when combined with his asthma
caused him to be unable to breathe
on sunday
he was off
the hannibal lechter mask
onto
a cannula
contagious
he was stuck in isolation
visitors were gowned/masked
(i think he should have been masked as he was the germ-y one)
he progressed slowly
lots of tests
lots of nebulizing
one night when i got home from hospital
i decided to make blueberry biscuits
i planned on eating one
i ate them all
lots of other things happened that week
including a nor'easter
he was no longer contagious
he was moved into a room with a view
he was moved into a room with a view
after a full week in hospital
he was released this past saturday
slowly every day he's improving
and
now
i
need
a
vacation
