To: Silentgypsy; Marcella

At 8am we could not get an appointment for both of us to see a dr at the same time at our new dr or our old one. We went to the ER since my wife was so bad off and spent the day there. We got swabbed out, EKG’ed, bled, Xrayed, shot w/steroids, and breathing treatments.

Thank you Lord, for small favors. Neither of us has the flu. They determined my wife to have severe bronchitis and myself to have asthma attack. I have very mild asthma, never needed any treatment or anything. I think my ever present wheezing caused them to look longer and deeper. They watched me for a few hours debating whether to admit me on a caution for possible pneumonia. A mega shot of steroids and an additional breathing treatment and a little improvement caused them to discharge me. I wasn’t gunna stay anyway. They just had the figure it out on their own.

We left about 5pm with a handfull of scripts for antibiotics and steroids, and after the drugstore circus and a stop for supper, we made it home.

Thank you for your prayers and concerns.
