It has been a very miserable three days as I suffered
through a 24/48 stomach flu that me down sleeping very long, not eating, not
drinking, not going the bathroom, nothing for the first two days. The third day
was just a little better as I could get up and down all da eating a couple of
crackers, eating a few cantaloupe slices, and one time drinking a LITTLE tiny
glass of protein shake, and another eating a few peach slices throughout the
day. A late shower allowed staggering to my nephew’s birthday/going away to the
Marines went as well as expected. A full night’s sleep last night worked well
so I am up and at it this morning.
I feel so much better today so I feel like I can tell about
the “flu: or whatever it was that go me down. This thing hit me so hard that I
did not get to see my youngest grandson or my granddaughter over the two days.
I did not eat or drink anything. I had nothing but dry heaves for the time
period.
Sunday I was still not completely better but I was up and
around even though I did not make it to church. I did manage to stay up most of
the day and watch some TV and talk to my wife a little bit.
On Monday I had a doctor’s appointment in LC and after I
filled out a bible of paperwork got to meet with two nurses and two doctors.
All info was great but it was more and MORE questions about my knee. BY the
time I left I had missed seeing my grandson heading off to the Marine recruit center
at Paris Island. I only missed his leaving
by 10 minutes but I STILL missed it. I headed up coming home and sleeping for
three hours. From there I stayed awake the rest of the day/evening.
Today (Tuesday) I got up just fine and feel almost NORMAL
and I hope things will go well. I am still ten pounds down from normal but I
feel better. Had breakfast which was leftover from yesterdays meal but it was
good.
Now I have things I want to get done from the last seven
days!
