We are hanging in there regarding Judie's radioactive treatment. She has taken up residence in the den. Literally living in her Lazy Boy chair. She is really doing well considering the limitations placed upon her. No outside traffic, she can not go to Sonic for a Coke or the grocery store (which she hates anyway). We have to stay apart until the Isotope goes though at least one half life.
The half life is 8 days. She took 20 millicuries. So at the end of 8 days it will be down to 10 millicuries depending on how much her body retains. We can assume all of it is retained but who knows. Any rate she had a bad day with upset stomach but that could be the treatment or it could be Montezuma's Revenge. She was better yesterday.
Time is marching on, nothing can stop that but it is time after all. And it seems to drag when you are constrained as she is. Me, I bounce in and out of the garage working on Radio Control airplanes and running food errands. I bring her a Sonic Coke every now and then - that helps a little bit. I don't press her and she seems to really appreciate that.
Gotta go feed the birds.
