Awake: 7:00am Temp 37 sleep 7+14 sunny overnight @ Pahrump, NV.
I walk over to the Saddle West Casino & sign up for another month here in Pahrump, NV. Then walk over to Smith’s & buy some milk; Kathy will be staying indoors again today.
Kathy & I do more scrutinizing of the medical papers we have on file. Actually I want to get our file sorted out in prep for organizing data on the new tax yr.
Around 2:00pm, Melissa calls from the Indiana, PA Hospital; Matthew was diagnosed with diabetes today. His blood sugar was over 450 when they checked it (that is approaching coma territory) & the ambulance will be taking Matthew & Kevin to the Pittsburgh Children’s Hospital pronto. Just hearing about this, not good news brought some tears. Matthew however, was excited to be riding in an ambulance.
Melissa asked her good friend Beth Anne to drive the Toyota mini van to Pittsburgh with her, Andrew & Nathan. Melissa had to hang up & told us she would try & call us later.
Our day changed from this point. We went to Google & read more about Type 1 diabetes, etc.
Dinner: Albacore tuna, broccoli, (4) different kinds of rice & salad.
DVR movie: “Becket” with Richard Burton, Peter O’Toole, John Gielgud, Donald Wolfit, Martita Hunt, Pamela Brown, etc. Stunning film; centers on stormy friendship between Archbishop of Canterbury Thomas a Becket & his English King, Henry II. Superbly acted & magnificently photographed. 1964. Fantastic movie.
We had no other phone calls tonight.
