Howard fizzled and did not bring any rain. But it did pass so today was not as muggy as it was yesterday. Since there was no rain we walked our 1/2 block this morning. Then sat down and talked with Mrs. Vea for a while. Not sure if I mentioned this earlier, but the filming we saw in mid-July was for the new Hawaii Five-O series. They were filming at the house across the street from Mrs. Vea.
We went in for Mom's weekly blood test and also for a couple tests that Dr. Pham wanted regarding Mom's kidney function and some other things. We got a call from Dr. Chan's office later in the day to schedule her for a transfusion on Wednesday, so I need to take her in tomorrow for the cross-typing and ID bracelet.
I think its a good thing she is getting blood this week, she was very tired today. She wanted to go to the Navy Exchange to pick up an electric pressure cooker that was on sale since I said I wanted to get one. Even though she was tired when we went for the lab work she insisted on going; but said we were only going for the one thing. On the walk from the car to the front door she was pooped. So I had her sit on her walker seat and I pushed her backwards through the store. We got the pressure cooker and headed back out and she did not stop me so she could look at things, which she always does and ends up buying way more than she planned to.
Of course, Mom won't let on that it is the leukemia and lack of blood cells that is making her tired. She insists the cats are keeping her awake at night because Xander and Shiro jump up on the bed with her and keep her awake by walking all over the bed! Photos from previous posts show the real story!
We also got a call from Dr. Pham this evening, she just wanted to let us know that all the tests she requested were good. I need to remember to call cousin Jane tomorrow to set up a time for her to drop by.
Happy Birthday to Paul, Nora, and Dominique! And Happy Anniversary to Bick & Ron!
