Tonight's photo shows how Woody occupied his time on our way to the doctor appointment in Murfreesboro. That appointment was interesting...the doctor wondered why he was seeing us so soon after the procedure he did for Woody last Friday. The nurse assumed that we were there to schedule an appointment to have a graft put in the other arm. We told them both that we were here because theiir office made the appointment! Woody did mention the stitch or two in his neck and the doctor did take those out. I guess Woody was encouraged to have another graft put in since thr catheters are more likely to get infected. But the doctor had no problem with Woody wanting to wait till putting in the graft is a necessity. Woody's not willing to give up his one good arm at this point so wants to use the catheter as long as he can. We were in and out of that appointment very quickly. We were away from the house for 3-1/2 hours but only a half hour of that was appointment related and less than 15 minutes was spent with the doctor. Our home health nurse came this morning around 11am so we were full up with appointments today. Wait till I tell you about next week! I did a lot of preparation work for tonight's supper this morning before the nurse appointment. I got the filling for the chicken pot pie, Woody's request this week, put together. And, I put the pie crust together up to point of rolling it out...patted it into a disc shape and wrapped it in plastic wrap and refrigerated it till I was ready to put it all together before supper. I also made a pineapple casserole that Woody is fond of. I got both these in the ovens after we got home. He seemed to enjoy both...but ate more than one helping of the pineapple. I still have to get the casseroles put in the refrigerator and clean up a little more in the kitchen, I think we are both tired from our day. We have had a storm roll through and probably more to come. To be continued. Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
