Thur. 8/7 - update

Had an ok day. However, we think the new med Caed is on might be causing a few problems. He virtually had no appetite all day (VERY abnormal for him). A couple of times he also complained his tummy was hurting or just that he didn't feel well. He also told us his fingers were "sparkling..." (we're assuming he meant tingling). Also noticed his eyes sunken in more than usual. Not sure. Maybe there's some dehydration caused from the new medicine. I skipped one of his doses this evening. Only giving it every 12 hrs. instead of 6. I will call Dr. Higgins' office tomorrow and see what he suggests.

Todd flew in around noon today. The last two flights he's had (coming in from Dallas) we have stood outside and watched his plane fly over. Todd said today he was finally on the right side of the plane so he could see the house too. He even told me about the car that was parked in front of the mailbox....he was right! Anyway, been cool for the kids to see him "in the air." Once he flies over, that's our cue to hop in the van and head for the airport.

Tomorrow night we are planning on going back to Joyland. The kids of course are ecstatic! (Greg....if y'all get on the road NOW, I bet you could make it just in time to go with us!!!! Just like old times.............)
