Wednesday, 24 December 2014

I went for a walk for about 20 minutes this morning because I was feeling tired and a little off. Besides, one of my toes was hurting inside the shoe.

David had an appointment this morning for a CT scan, but there was a complication. The scan needs to be done with a contrasting agent, but the contrasting agent can damage kidneys that are in marginal conditions, as David's are. Such people need to take pills twice the day before, in the morning before such a scan is done, and an hour after it, all to protect their kidneys. So the appointment is rescheduled for next Tuesday, and we'll get a prescription for the necessary medication from our family doctor, get it filled at the pharmacy, and give David the pills next Monday and Tuesday.

The trip to the hospital for the aborted scan pretty much wore David out for the day, so he slept most of the rest of the day. I picked up a grilled cheese sandwich for him and burekas for me at Rachel Café and brought them home for us to eat here for lunch.

I did 3 loads of laundry today, but, other than that got virtually nothing done. Of course, since it's Christmas Eve, which is a holiday in almost all of Europe, I had no students at all today.
