As I write, Jill and Diane are fanning Craig who is suffering hot sweats from pneumonia and/or tumor induced fevers. The plot thickens with a patient room that doesn't appear to have a functioning air conditioner. So, Jilly and Diane grabbed their best pieces of paper and went to it, boldly wandering down a path of repetitive motion injuries in the wrists, elbows and shoulders. But, did they take a knee? No ma'am. Noooo ma'am. Fan they did for a good 5 minutes until the smart one in the family (yours truly) suggested placing an ice pack on his groin -- seemed like a less stress inducing/intensive way of cooling a brother down but that's just me thinking out loud...
He's still hot, and reminds us every minute or so, but at least the ice pack is helping!! ~E
The best part was when Craig told us (Diane and me) to stop fanning because he was getting tired. Uhhhhh? -- J
ReplyDeleteErin, Jill and Diane, my heart on wings flies to you. Continue your brave love living dear ones. Tell Craig I think he's a wonderful role model and a remarkable soul. He's in my ongoing mantra for graceful evolution. Hug from Ruby
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you know it is the ergonomics (is that spelled right?) psychologist in the family that notices the 'easy' way to do things...and the least stressful to the body? ;)
