This week has been a quiet week. Geoff was feeling pretty good Tuesday and walked quite a bit around the house (inside of course). Perhaps he overdid just a little because Wednesday was not a very good day. So he rested all day Wednesday.
The only venture outside this week was to his primary care physician to follow up on the blood clot and the xarelto. He is to continue the xarelto until this prescription runs out, taking two a day. When this prescription is done, he will take it for three more months but only once a day. He was also tested for anemia. The doctor will call him if he is anemic and let him know what to do.
His favorite thins is that he is to continue wearing the compression hose until he goes back to his PCP in mid-March. And his very favorite thing about the compression hose is that I washed them for him yesterday with a bunch of kitchen towels. I washed them all on the "sanitize" cycle. As some of you may know, my kitchen is red and I have some new dish drying mats that are also red and have never been washed...until yesterday...with the white compression hose. You can guess the rest. But he is a good sport about it...after all "only real men can wear pink"
The goal for this week...go to the varsity game on Friday night and continue as possible with paperwork, scheduling and upcoming sectional arrangements for transportation, etc.
Hey if anyone can pull of the pink hose for valentine's month it's Mr. P...of course that won't stop us from giving him a little grief once he's fully healthy :). Maybe you could wash them with some Green towels for St. Patty's day in March. Continued prayers are with you all!
ReplyDeletethanks Rob...your're hilarious!!
ReplyDeleteUndoubtedly my oldest brother looks good in whatever he wears....including pink! Although Nicole....if he ever gets new compression socks, wash them out by hand! :) Glad to hear he is doing well....sorry we have not gotten up that way to see him, but, doesn't mean I don't think about him each day...love ya both.
ReplyDeleteJeannie...he does look good in pink:-) As far as not getting up here...with the weather it is hard to go anywhere!! And maybe more snow tonight/tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteLove you too!
