After an appointment in Wichita this morning we went to a restaurant/cafe called The Village Inn. It is a chain so some other people in the US likely have seen it. It specializes in breakfasts, but does have other things. It was...

Kayla Tsukino @GardenGerty I think I'll be starting to drink hot chocolate again.

It's almost noon and only 61 out. Now for me, that's nothing. But, you can really feel the difference. This cold front won't last long, the first ones rarely do, but Haloween will be the worst of it. George and I have to go out in...

Kayla Tsukino @celticeagle Yeah, but it is what it is. George had a stroke, doctors are par for the course.

The test went as I'd expected it would. When it comes to the end, that's where George tends to struggle. His muscles just get tired I think. It's hard for me to explain to him how the diagestive tract works. I mean he has some...

Kayla Tsukino I still won't know until next month when this one is taken out. Based on the results of today's test, I'm going to assume a replacment will be done. It was the same result as the several we've done before. It hasn't changed in over a year I don't think it ever...

I managed to work things out with insurance so George can get this critical test done to decide if he still needs a feeding tube. We'll be on our way soon. And, I can't believe we're up, but here we are. I'll be sure to let you...

Okay well if you want to get literal about it, as it is after midnight here. Although George and i haven't gone to bed, yet. He's being irritable and I'll have to get one more tube feed in him, too. Harder than it sounds when he's...

Kayla Tsukino @LadyDuck For George, it's the stroke, but it can be hard I know.

Good morning. I don't know what is going through George's head right now. He asked about taking a ride up the coast, but then is sitting in the sun with the radio and his morning meds. So.... I guess I'll find out one way or...

Kayla Tsukino I don't know. We have a bit of a break in November, unless something else comes up. But, we'll probably just be boring until then.

Kayla Tsukino No one would be there, so there's no point. I'm not happy about it, we're surviving, but does that mean I have to like it? Does that mean I can't wish for something better?

Kayla Tsukino The way we have things now isn't working either. Hospitals and doctors offices can set their own priceses. Even if you have insurance, the insurance can deny any medicine or test or medical treatment, even if it's life-saving. It's not just me, but there's...

Kayla Tsukino He may still need it, at least until he develops stronger eating habits, but the result of the test was as I'd expected.

Kayla Tsukino It'll be critical I think. I already know he pretty much failed. I knew he would. I know he has an undiagnosed eating disorder, and fourty plus years and a stroke aren't going to make it any easier. He started asking questions about how his esphogiofus works....
