Friday, April 24

Got to admit it's gett'n better, (or at least believe it) a little better

Wow can you believe 3 weeks has passed. It almost seems like time has just stood still. At times it is like I am right here standing still and every thing passes before my eyes (that ever happened to anyone).

Today the Peep was turned down to 10. The peep is the breathing apparatus which, as I am told by Victor, assists by inflating the lungs. He told me alot of other things and that what was what I remembered. So remember 3 days ago (I think) the peep was at 13. Blow baby blow!!!

They are still decreasing the versed so by my calculations the last shot (not really a shot and you get my drift) should be late tomorrow afternoon. Are you ready to stop dream'n???? Maybe que si and maybe que no. Don't worry honey they haven't said anything about stopping the morphine (before you know it you will be able to press the special button to self administer; and only when you wake UP).

Other than that just movin at a snails pase. I told Diana, the nurse for today, Deano was good at that; me not so good.

Have a good weekend everyone and for any of you out there in blog land having a Marquerita - have 3 for me and toast to Deano's awakening.

All the time, gett'n so much better all the time..............

Hey Teri, you sound good today. wow, 3 weeks! I know i came into this late but, it seems like 10 weeks. i can't imagine how time seems to move for you. I heard a term " time vampire" in regards to the new hand held gadget that everybody just has to have. i've heard it used in video gaming to, where you look at the clock and it's 7:00 and the next time you look up(seems like 10 minutes) and it's 12:00. ouch! Time to go to bed. Well, past time really....
You seem to have the Beatles on your mind. Good music can help you through some rough spots and this seems as rough as they come. Can I use the word seems a few more times? When Dean gets home and in the right frame of mind you'll have to ask him about how he almost ruined the band "The Who" for me. When Dean, Doug and I were young pups we used to do summer jobs for Doug's dad. he had his own construction company. Part of our benefits were the use of the 18foot Sea-Ray and Doug's dad's gas card. hee hee, alot of water ski'n then along the bridge. Dean, the never ending fidget'r wanted music in the boot. All we had extra for a sound system was an old 8track player. We put it in.....Dean put it in. oh no! the only 2 tapes we had was Eddie Rabbit and the Who " quadrafinia" (spelling). We listen tothat who tape for 2 or 3 summers. if i don't hear the who again it'll be too soon. or so it seems! ha i got to use it again.
Hang tough and have a good weekend yourself!

Teri, I am an Alabama cousin of John and Sylvia Czarnota. John called me and told me about all the help that Dean had given him getting him ready to move. He calls me nearly every day and gives me a report on Dean. I told him that I would put Dean's name on our prayer list at Church. I wanted you to know that we are all praying for you in Alabama and we know that you and Dean need all the strength that God can give you now. Just take one day at a time.
We will continue to pray and keep up with Dean's progress.
