The Doctor was pleased by the changes in his blood pressure. I got it to normal levels. William was afraid but he went thru it with flying colors. He just had local anesthetic. We were in and out in less than 45 minutes.
William didn't bleed that badly.
Wed. I had a scare while we were in the pool. William kept saying that something was wrong. We had been in the pool about 15 minutes when this started. He couldn't seem to understand anything that i was saying. He did not remember what he did on Wed. Church and the pastor. It was scary. I though , Oh, No! another stroke. I got him out of the pool as soon as I could. Lo and behold 20 minutes later he was fine again. I presume that it was a TIA. Possily because of the thick blood.
I went home and put him to bed. I took his INR and called the cardiologist. They said that I should just continue his coumadin and retake the INR in a week.
I have been monitoring the bloodpressure. It is good. I am increasing his greens today. I have the day off. I cooked spinach, with bacon and boiled eggs and onions for breakfast. I cut up an avocado and tossed that in. That was breakfast with some yogurt.
I am making some greens, kale and mustard greens for lunch. Also, some turkey soup. I am cooking healthy today.
We had a good morning at the pool. William was walking in the shallow part of the pool more. This takes more out of him.
We saw the King Tut exhibit yesterday. I enjoyed it. William was confused. I had got him an audioguide. But, he didn't want it. He said that the person was talking too softly and too fast. I just gave it to somebody else to use.
We had lunch at Cleburne's. It is really good. We shared a main entree and desseret.
We then saw the Bible museum. William really enjoyed this museum. This is the second time that we have toured it.
We got home and were both exhausted. I took off to the pool and had a nice swim. William did not want to go. He stayed home in bed.
