Darn it! Tomorrow is Boniva day
Good Suzi: It is going to be okay, it was the testosterone that made the situation worse with the two previous doses.
Bad Suzi: Here we go again, no picnic no fun, the early morning and the medication will have us stuck inside for a few days.
Good Suzi: Oh well even if it does knock him off his game for a couple days, Barbara won't be ill next week, and I have this stash to work with and birthday presents for neices and nephews. I would write out what they are, but they check in on the blog. Enjoy the break and work on fun stuff while he gets the drug out of his system.
Bad Suzi: You'll be too busy working and too tired to care. And you didn't stock up on chocolate!
Stay tuned who wins good Suzi or bad Suzi? Does J really have a problem with Boniva or has it been his recovery and bad timing. We will know this week one way or the other. Will U survive without chocolate until I go to Trader Joes?

A series of postings about my knitting, my life as a personal assistant (caregiver) to my husband. Not as depressing as it sounds, and we have this very cute little service dog who keeps things lively.

About Me
- Suzi Doe
- SLO County, California, United States
- I am a spousal caregiver. My husband is blind since birth, an amazing musician who has recently had more than his share of health problems. We are doing well, still in love and he will get better!
About J
J is my husband AKA DH. He is a sweet gentle man. He is a gifted composer and keyboard player his passion is Jazz. He is also blind since brith. He also has seizures, which led to severe osteoporosis and well it was a long summer in 2006.
About Miss Penny
Miss Penny is our service dog. She specifically is a seizure alert and response dog. (I promise more on her later)
About Barbara
Wow! Barbara has changed our lives, she is a nurse (certified nursing assistant to be exact) who works with J. M-F to help him regain his physical health. She is also a wonderful human being and has added so much to both our lives.
My parents
My mom is a mom. She stayed at home and baked cookies. She went to college to get her M-R-S and once she did she became Mom. She is a woman of faith who believes that moving moutains through faith is fact not fiction. She's older now, having some health problems, but at seventy it shows she has led a clean healthy life. She grew up on a dairy farm and it is my nanna and her who are responsible for my household survival skills, cooking, cleaning, sewing etc. There has not been a year since I left home that I haven't been grateful for and needed those skills.
My dad is eighty something now. He is a rock. He still gets out the weed eater like some gladiator to do battle with the weeds. He is amazing his parents were missionaries in the Philipines, where he was born and were they remained through WW2. My dad was a teenage civilian prisoner of the Japanese, who were no less cruel than the Nazi's of whose atrocities we are all well aware. My grandmother was one of three Americans executed by the Japanese and recognized as a hero for her efforts with a congressional medal of honor. I mention this because it changed his life and colors my every decision in life with heroic inspiration and faith.
