Yesterday's good day has been followed by a horrible day today. Bill woke me about 2:30 this morning with leg pain. His right foot was swollen and very painful. I called Mayo and Dr. Yip wanted him to go to ER. So, off we go. We still don't know what the problem is but we do know that there is no blood clot, it's not broken and he doesn't have gout. They are favoring tendonitis. They put a small splint on it and said to stay off it and to keep ice on it.

Got back home about 7 this morning. I slept until 9 and Bill slept until 11 but has felt lousy all day. He has had no appetite and only had some tomato soup to eat. He also has had a bathroom problem, which is compounded by not being able to move fast enough to get to the bathroom.

I finally got him to go to bed so hopefully he will feel better in the morning. He's also very cold now but doesn't feel like he has any fever. I, on the other hand, think it's hot in here even though it really isn't.

So, it has not been a good day. We've tried going to bed but the house phone has rung twice in the last hour. I'm going to give it a try again and maybe we will both get some sleep.
