Two Docs
Lew saw two doctors today — all by himself. He feels like a big boy, all grown up, going to the doctor by himself.
Though, I will argue that the dentist doesn’t count. No, his crown isn’t ready yet. He just went for an adjustment to his . . . (shoot, I’ve gone brain dead and [...]

Continuing . . .
Lew had a real bad day Sunday. Loosing his vision . . . well, he’s not fond of it. He’s now on a drug that’s helping reduce the severity, but he’s not seeing well enough to read easily.

A Bit Better
Today was a better day for Lew. No nausea meds necessary. He enjoyed a long cool walk in the park with Marley first thing this morning. And thanks to the “cold” weather (he was wearing a sweater a few days ago when the temperature was well over 90), he was out on the step ladder [...]

Dr. Chemo was [...]

Consensus!
Seems that Dr. Colon Surgeon and Dr. Roto-Rooter have been talking about Lew behind his back. Dr. Roto-Rooter’s Right Hand called this morning. They have finally agreed on what to do — Nothing! They’ve decided to leave Lew alone for a while and see how he does.
Whew! Can you spell RELIEF, boys and girls? Its [...]

My Turn?
Dr. Roto-Rooter shouldn’t be a doctor. He’s too nice.
Today, it was my turn. Its time for my recheck colonoscopy. His nurse showed me into the exam room. While taking my blood pressure, she asked, “Is Mr. Scott your husband?” She was horribly embarrassed when she realized what she had said and quickly corrected herself. We’ve [...]
