I'm Back and Sick

Hello to All! I know Jerry has filled you in on my dad, so I won't go over that again, except to say that he will have another procedure done sometime this coming week. Prayers for Dad & my mom would be appreciated. As for me, I am sick. I started coughing and blowing my nose at the hospital Friday. My eyes kept burning more and more throughout the day. I didn't get to bed until around 1:30 a.m. and then stayed in bed most of the day Saturday. After I got up I went to the store and out to dinner as Jerry told you. Of course, I found out I had a fever that has stayed with me. I have stayed down all day today as well. Right now, Tazo "Passion" tea has been my best friend!

Friday's menu--Day 11
Breakfast - Scrambled eggs with mushrooms & onions, turkey bacon
Lunch - Salad (at the hospital cafeteria) with wrong dressing and chicken salad
Dinner - Again, from the hospital cafeteria, chicken breast and tossed salad with wrong dressing
Dad's nurse was so sweet. She insisted on getting something for me from the cafeteria as it was 10:00 p.m. and I hadn't eated dinner yet. I was the only one there and we didn't want Dad left alone. So, she told the cafeteria that the meal was for a patient and I got to eat! Very nice of her.

Saturday's menu--Day 12
Breakfast - Fast
Lunch - Fast
Dinner - Petitte ribeye with mushrooms and onions, steamed vegetables and salad--again with the wrong dressing. It's really easy to fast when you're in bed the whole day!

Today's menu -- Day 13
Breakfast/Lunch - Berry medley smoothie
Dinner - Broiled cod filets, asparagus, salad with appropriate dressing
Snack - (maybe) plain yogurt with berries

God bless you all and Welcome Phase 2!!!!
