Monday, March 23: Mike @ Hospital Cloudy & Yoga

Good day everybody last night I didn’t sleep all that great but I got to sleep until 10 o’clock before I decided to get up my call just I was getting up and said he’s not being released from the hospital today because he had a fibrillation moment where his heart rate to 130 something beats per minute so they kept them in there putting potassium in them as well as a diuretic. They’re loading them up with potassium chloride to make up the fact he lost a lot of potassium during his whole treatment regimen. Ran into a guy at the hospital named Christopher Robin who used to be a yoga instructor at Hot Yoga Philly then he opened up his new yoga studio. It was hard to stay in business so he became a Penn nurse and he’s a nice guy a little high strung  and he knows byron and Chris Fluck, which I found very interesting. I could hear the song “it’s a small world after all“ in my head. I then fortunately caught the 40 bus back to Mike’s to get me in time to talk to Larry who had called and he says he’s going on a cruise that starts in Barcelona Spain and goes to Africa. It’s a nine day cruise. Larry does love his cruise is that that’s for sure. 3:35 PM I’ll be going back to Yoga for the 4 o’clock byron class and hopefully some samosas. I was not able to eat them last Monday cause I was still recovering from my tooth extraction. I signed up for byron‘s class and when I arrived at the studio, they had two samosas left so I got the last two that they had so that was a good way to start. The class. Class was good. It was warm, but not nearly as warm as yesterday, which was smoking hot. And then just took my sweet time getting dressed and hanging out with Mary that was cool. 

Sunday, March 22: Breakfast, Alaska trip planning, & Yoga

We Today we decided to get up around 11 AM and get going so we could have breakfast and chill out and and go over Alaska itinerary. Went through a bunch of hotels often on in Fairbanks Alaska. We also ordered some delicious breakfast. I had my breakfast burritos I always have. Well, we ended up finding a place there’s $108 a month. It’s near a restaurant right above a restaurant. We decided to call the place directly. The guy was very nice and it had good reviews so we called him and we we decided to go for it we asked them to get us the furthest place from the bar and he said he would and he took our names down and sent us a informal email. This place is pretty wild and it looks like true Alaska place. They serve all kinds of seafood, such as salmon at this restaurant. So we’re gonna stay four nights there. Soon after we left the heart of catering and went back to Mary’s and just relaxed for a little while, which was nice. It was nice to relax before a yoga class and not just have a half hour. We had an hour and a half. Well, we relaxed and then we went to Kaitlyn‘s 4 o’clock class and it was packed and it was hot as anything. Both of us left feeling better, but also we were very tired as well. We went back and took a little bit of a nap and then we ordered some Indian and that made her stomach feel a lot better than it had all day. I give her credit. She went to yoga class on an upset stomach that’s that takes a lot of internal strength to do that.

Thursday, March 19: Mike in Hospital. Errands Yoga & Meetings

Hi kids, I woke up this morning with a message from Mike that he had called the Emergency Department around 3️⃣ in the morning and was admitted later on for breathing problems. I decided that I had enough of dealing with Mike’s Apartment with the mold and mildew in the in the bathroom in the overall air quality in this room, which is not great. I told everybody that called me or I could report him being in the hospital. A year of this is not gonna work for him. Anyhow, I certified mailed the letter to PHA so he can get a senior apartment hopefully. Anyway, after I did that, I needed something to eat so I picked up a Gyro and 
 picked up his scripts. One of them is for intervenous diuretics because he’s not draining and supposedly his heart not draining. Fluids causes him not to be able to breathe. Anyhow, I almost forgot I had Rehab and had to take Uber to the Rehab to make it on time. I forgot my machine as well proportionate they had their own stimulus machine. Anyway, I left Rehab and caught the 29 bus. This driver did a really nice job avoiding a stupid car that parked on the corner. He barely missed it but he did miss it. That was a good driving job. I would’ve never gotten home if you had to scrape that car I’m gonna go to Mike’s and then head to Yoga. Well, I got the Mike’s and he had two packages and Mom’s Meals waiting picked up his scripts. One of them is for intervenous diuretics because he’s not draining and supposedly there. I also had to get the laundry. End up getting these food holders and it looks like he bought me an Apple cord and charger. I don’t know so anyway it’s 3:45 PM and I’m just hitting Spruce in 15th so I’m gonna have to really hustle to get the class on time. I made it to class in time, which was good! Charisse talked to Class and it went pretty well. I was much more stiff today. Then again yesterday was an exceptional day for my body. I went back to Mary’s and we took a nap and then I just headed out to the meeting. It starts at 8:15 PM.
