Update on Charles

 Health update on Charles

When Tina got off work  last night  (after 9:00) we decided  Charles should go to Emergency. He had had fever and chills all day and his feet and legs were swollen very badly.

 He was treated and tested for a lot of things and it was determined he has Pneumonia again. The swelling of the feet and legs was caused by his not taking one of his prescribed meds on this recent trip. (a water pill for heart and BP )

He didn't want to be admitted to hospital so was allowed to come home.
  He will be on antibiotics for the next few days.

  We were there ( in emergency) for more than 6 hours and didn't get home until after 5:00 AM.

Tina has to work today and I don't know how she will-with no sleep! She got a little (I hope) and went in later  than usual.

She's so good to us! Thanks, my sweet girls,  
for helping us!
  (Alli was with us too)


Love,
Junie

  1. Hi Junie Rose -- I wish a speedy recovery for Chuckles -- I'm glad you have your kids to help you when you need it :)

    Your music is awesome -- Sounds of Silence and i see Don Henley is up next. Eagles are coming here but i'm sure the tickets are long gone. After my vet bills last week, i can't even think about anything fun :(

    Take good care of yourself -- and Charles, of course :)

  3. Oh, poor Charles! :( I hope he will get better soon. And I know those overnight trips to the ER are not fun either! Thinking of all of you.

  4. Can't skip those meds. It catches up with you and the results are serious. I have to remind Jay sometimes when he start a new prescription. Hope Charles is better soon. Those Er visits really wear you out don't they!
