I AM STILL staying IN S FLORIDA @ CARRIAGE HOUSE INN.
WOKE WITH NO REAL HEADACHE PAIN.
WE HAVE WONDERFUL WHITE FULL CLOUD COVERAGE TODAY!
SEEMS SOOTHING!
FOR ME, THERE IS NO LONGER NATURAL OVERNIGHT WEIGHT LOSS,
AS OCCURS/ OCCURRED DURING EARLY DECADES OF MY NATURAL SLEEP.
IN FACT, SOME MORNINGS I WAKE UP WITH WEIGHT GAIN OF A POUND OR MORE.
SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE ...HOLDING THE WATER FROM WHAT I INHALE? PRESSURE?
DAY TO ORGANIZE ETC.
DROVE SOUTH AND WEST, TO FT LAUDERDALE, TO MEET ADULT NEPHEW KHALIL.
THE DAY ENDED UP THAT HE COULD NOT MEET.
------------------------------------------
I THEN CALLED AN ELDERLY FRIEND.
HE IS NOT DOING WELL AT ALL.
SO I DROVE FURTHER SOUTH AND WESTTO SEE THIS ELDERLY FRIEND.
HE REALLY WAS NOT WELL!
weakened condition.
HE IS 74 YRS OF AGE.
HE WAS UNSTABLE ON HIS FEET. HE COULD BARELY STAND UP.
HE HAD DEEP GUT "ROILING" AND STOMACH PAIN, NAUSEA,
PAIN IN HIS LOWER SMALL INTESTINES.
HE WAS VOMITING UP SMALL QUANTITIES OF CLEAR FLUIDS.
HE HAD GOOD COLOR IN FACE AND HANDS, SKIN DOES NOT SHOW DEHYDRATION.
HIS TONGUE THOUGH IS DEEPLY CRACKED DOWN THE CENTER WITH A SLIGHT COATING.
AFTER A FEW HOURS OF OUT VISIT AS I STOOD BY HIS VOMIT SESSIONS,
I FINALLY GENTLY, PATIENTLY ENCOURAGED HIM TO REST ON HIS LIVING ROOM DEVAN/ COUCH.
I GUIDED HIM IN A CALMING BREATH SESSION AS HE LAY ON THE COUCH.
HE KEPT TRYING TO BLOW HIS BREATH OUT THOUGH HIS MOUTH.
I ENCOURAGED INHALE/ EXHALE THROUGH NOSE AND SINUS CAVITIES ONLY!!
AND AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME HE WAS ABLE TO RELAX, FINALLY.
THROUGH COACHING, HE REPEATED AND CONTINUED THIS BREATH FOR APPROX 1 HOUR.
IT WAS ALREADY AFTER 10:30 PM, INTO THE NIGHT BY THEN.
ANY TIME HE TRIED TO GET UP THOUGH THE DIZZINESS.
CALLED NEARBY NEIGHBOR, STRONG MALE IN HIS 30s, FABIAN to ASSIST US.
WE TOOK TEMPERATURE: ALL OKAY.
TOOK BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS X 2.
IT WAS REASONABLY WITHIN HEALTHY PARAMETERS.
AFTER TIME OF SEEING NAUSE, WEAKNESS,
AND WE CONSIDERED, AND FINALLY AGREED,
TO CALL EMT FOR AN ER HOSPITAL VISIT.
TO CONFIRM STABILITY CHECK OF ELDER FRIEND.
EMT ARRIVED AND HAD TO CARRY MY FRIEND TO THE EMERGENY VEHICLE.
ELDER MAN, RON CAPORASO AGE APPROX 74 YEARS.
