Marty had a challenging week with return of intense intestinal cramping and nausea. This meant missing work and remaining in bed for several days. He looked and felt washed out and weary. There is very little that I or anyone can do for him when his condition deteriorates in this way. All that helps is sleep, preferably with a hot water bottle on his abdomen. Carmella the cat keeps him company in her fat feline fashion.
This morning, Marty got up at 4am to make his flight to Chicago, where he will visit with his mother. (Since my mother here in Seattle is very ill, I could not go along with him.) In any case, Marty got to the airport and found that his flight was cancelled, which meant he had to wait hours at the airport. This was very hard for him as he was not feeling in any way back to full steam. He is really frustrated with his physical limitations for any travel ease, and of course, even in good health, air travel is difficult currently.
Once he gets to Chicago, I am hoping he can rest a bit and enjoy precious time with his 94 year old dear mother. I will report as things go along!
