I slightly better day for me, as I continue to fight the bug that seems to have landed in my belly. I called the 24-hour Nurse Hot Line and we talked for about  30 minutes, or so. She said it is likely not the flu but more of a intestinal virus, and suggested that there are a few things I could do. I followed her advice and within about eight hours I was feeling a bit better, and then it progressed upward from there. That conversation took place at about 02:00 this morning. I still didn't get much sleep the rest of the night, but was able to catch up on some later this morning and into the afternoon. Now, with the day over, I'm feeling much better, and on top of that the Giants won over St. Louis. Bumgarner was pitching, and he has been awesome all year and now well into the playoffs.

Jason rested for most of the day, and Linda worked on things around the house. Jason did have visitors, while I was resting. I did get a chance to get up and say, "Hi!" but I didn't visit much, as I was still looking pretty bad. It was good to see folks coming to spend a little time with Jason, as I am sure he gets tired of seeing us all the time. His wounds continue to confound us, as the one on the left looked like it was going to finally close up and now it opened a bit more. Jason has not been up too much, so I don't know what happened to cause that set back, but it is something we deal with.

Tonight was relaxed and restful. Linda prepared a nice chicken meal for Jason. I had a bowl of soup and she had her diet prepared food. Tomorrow should be a good day all the way around, and I am looking forward to getting out a little and possibly a run to Costco. Thank you, for all the continued support and prayers. Take care and stay positive.
