No More Bad Hair Days!!

Well, Campers, this is not the most current news, but my hair is all gone.  It had been falling out and was ratty, so my friend Barry came over with his clippers and all and completed the job.  It really has not been hard to get used to.  I occasionally reach up to straighten it out. but those instances are fewer and further between.  My mustache and eyebrows are likewise thinning and I figure they'll be gone within two weeks. 

Oh, and another adventure last Wednesday.  I had some redness, swelling, and soreness on my right arm, at the site of one of the IV's from when I was in the hospital.  So, after Team Trivia, Elaine brought me to the ER at Sarasota Memorial where they diagnosed me with superficial phlebitis and a small blood clot.  I have to take an aspirin a day and a new antibiotic and apply heat to the site periodically.  The treatment is working and it's noticeably better.

Not much else going on.  Elaine put up the Christmas tree and has begun decorating.  I have appointments at Moffitt tomorrow for blood draw, a CT scan, and to talk to the doctor.  More detail will follow.

Peace and Love to all!!!
Joe
