Oops- a change in plans



Traveling up the east coast- Savannah, Hilton Head, Myrtle Beach, DC, Vermont, then inland-PA- with the ultimate destination- a visit for my Cal 101 clinic with Ohio State University... Home scheduled for today...back to Quincy and the granddaughters. We left July 9th...

oops.

Seems I may have something called PCP pneumonia. I am a guest at the St James Resort (James Cancer Clinic-OSU)with an oxygen hose draped around my head, IV's full of antibiotics chugging into my chest, and an O2 monitor clipped to my toe- typing with it clipped to my finger was not working.

Best laid plans. Denise and I had a great time- I felt great, up until several days ago- developing a cough and chest congestion. I had my CT Scan, and saw my coordinator on Friday for my two month supply of the drugs. I wound up admitted which strangely enough was a good thing. I had several bouts of 102,7 degree temperature, and until today felt pretty lousy. I would hate to have that happen on the first night of our two day trip home, roughly around Cleveland Tennessee.

My main Doc, my Guru, was on vacation last week- I emailed him last night and he emailed me immediately and came in to see me today... why I come to OSU- world renowned Doc- dropping in to see how I am doing in jeans and a golf shirt...

I am feeling pretty good today- still having some occasional coughing, but things could be worse.

Well that's the update...more when I hear it.

God Bless,
