 The saga started at the Sarasota Memorial Hospital's Wound Clinic.  A small lesion on my right leg was healing well;  but the big toe was wildly inflamed and infected. Thus followed surgery for that; with a bonus -  the long overdue insertion of a stent from my heart  to my right leg.   On one of my furloughs I was sent home bearing a Jackson-Pratt drainage machine with instructions for its use. Grrh   a plastic tube broke loose as I slept,  causing a flood in my sleep wear etc.   Fortunately that was the day for a nurse to be at my home. Back at the Hospital I was not a particularly good boy.  When given the choice between going home or having therapy I always chose to go home. On one occasion I chose home.   No sooner had I been there I fell into a sense of deep loneliness. I went back to the hospital where I had to be treated as a new patient.   I had allowed my stubborn will to override my good sen...

Things are going well-ish.

  Mr Cooper and I were able spend times today (morning and  afternoon  at the 17th St Dog Park.  My short walks were useful in the healing journey.  Cooper ran amuck as I rested.  Good for Coop and good for me   BUT NOT GREAT I  had a wrangle with my therapy clinic.   The clinic placed me in a (sporadic and irregular ) program  for frequent fallers.  I am not such.   I need a progamme for daily steps t'ward full recovery. in a broad scope    We'll find one soon! jmp

SCAM MEDICAL SCAM NAUGHTY JONATHAN

I was almost caught Many know that I am fortunate enough to receive medical at home (Following recent surgery) three times a week. There is no fixed schedule, so the time for the upcoming visit is set   the day before. At about 11:30 a,m,  I returned a voice message  from Jonathan RN about the Friday date  We set an afternoon   time A few hours later, Darlene RN  (I know her) called me about the same thing; to set a time for the Friday visit.   'Twas then that I saved my bacon.    John was a scammer, Of course he, on the pretext of getting necesary info,  might well have stolen some of my  confidential information I called him saying that I knew he was a scammer; that I would not be at home at the given time; and if he showed up I would notify the authorities PHEW .
