And Back Home Again

     Annie and I were able to drive home on Monday, after another spell at Duke, both in and out-patient.
Tests, Labs, and exams  showed infections of unknown origin. The treatment was antibiotics and anti fungals.
This stay at Duke was another great educational opportunity for us both, as we struggle to understand the terminology and conditons that our Medicos have spent years studying.  At least we now feel that we can pose relevant questions.

      This was a bit of a close call, with the high fever.  The lesson is to wear a mask, even if I am alone on the beach until my immune system has a chance to start acquiring a library of all the stuff out there that a normal immune system deals with every day.

    I am feeling lucid enough to trust posting some of the Blog entries I have been working on,
stay tuned.

    Wow...know you both are happy to be back and OK. Medicos should bestow you with honorary MTP degree (medical terminology pundit)...Lord knows, you deserve it.

    Love here always
