I hope this plays...it is so quick if you blink twice you will miss it. It is the far corner of the couch you want to watc.
Also, below is the Christmas quilt that is finished. It is 67 inches x 76 inches.

I am sorry not to be commenting more. It has been a stressful time. Roger is all over the place with how he is feeling, things that are happening. He was starting to come around to more what is normal now after the last episode when I called the ambulance. He went down in the basement and stood for an hour or two working on something when I was gone.
It set off more strange things. So long and involved it will make your head spin. And the thing is sometimes it is like flipping a switch from on to off or off to on.. After the standing down in the basement, and his wrist started hurting, the second day after that he got up with his hand swollen. I took him to the emergency room. The doctor did not tell me what it was, but to another dr. he called it cellulitis. He put him on strong antibiotic.
I kept him on them...his hand got better, but he is still not normal. But the antibiotic may have been too muc. We have been to NP and she is doing a repeat of some labs to compare to last time. I have not heard about them. But she said they gave him way too much of the antibiotic.
He will feel absolutely terrible, may nap, and get up and be a lot more normal. But it is never two days in a row. And he may be what seems fine for a bit and turn around and there is just that terrible strained look in his eyes. He still teases some...not a lot. But more than he did with the last episode.
I hate coming on here just to sing the blues...
I was concerned about you two. Roger? Get well!! And Rose, I have sympathies what you are dealing with. (Quilt is beautiful!). Now, gonna watch the video. I am glad you dropped by take care.
ReplyDeletePuppers is a hoot. That quilt is just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAntibiotics, especially strong ones, can sure mess with other medication you are on - sometimes even negate it. Hope you get it all worked out quickly. Give me a shout if you ever need to talk. Luv ya!
The video did work for me. :)
ReplyDeleteHope things improve with Roger.
Want you to know that I pray for the two of you each morning!!
The video is cute! I love the quilt.
ReplyDeleteIt is good to hear how you are doing Rose. I hope Roger feels better consistently soon. It must be a constant worry though the health issue appears to be intermittent. Take care, Rose!
I can hear the delightful laughter in the video. The dog must be a lot of enjoyment for them.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about all the ups and down with Roger. It must be so stressful. When the husbands are not well, it's us who have to look after them and it's not always easy. I hope that he feels better very soon.
Take care,
Hugs,
Julia
Oops, I forgot to say how lovely your colorful quilt is.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt, cute video, and I hope Roger feels better soon. Hugs and prayers. Thank you for writing.
ReplyDeleteRecently I have taken a liking to more red in quilts. I love your Christmas quilt. We just have to take one day at a time; hopefully tomorrow will be a better day. Our doggies give us so much joy!
ReplyDeletePuppy's are so cute...I thought future nerd instead of gymnast (hehehehe). LOVE your quilt, maybe because it is so scrappy it doesn't look real Christmasy. Based on the comments to your blog, I'd say if you need to talk we will listen. Sometimes just talking about your fears and feelings helps, even if you know there is no solution or answer. Take care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about Roger. I hope he is feeling better soon. You never need to apologize for posting what you're feeling. It helps to get it out.
ReplyDeleteThat video was cute.
The quilt is absolutely beautiful.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteLove the gymnast, very cute video. Your quilt is beautiful.
Sending prayers for Roger, I hope he improves and feels better soon.
Take care, enjoy your day!
you know how much I love The Gymnist and watched it 4 times, twice to see Gus and twice to hear the laughter again. the quilt is beautiful and would be pretty all year long. I am a huge fan of all shades of red. Prayers for Roger and for you as caregiver. Love you, keep coming back, we want to hear and the support from bloggers is the best thing for you.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm right there with MadSnapper (Sandra)..we are there for you and it's good to have people that you can vent with...a safe place. Prayers for your Hubby and prayers for you as his caregiver. It is an unimaginable stress.
ReplyDeleteI really love your Christmas quilt. The colors are so cheerful and that's a whole lot of hours of dedicated work you put into it.
