March 2016: "The Georges in Peru"

During meal times, if Amy isn't feeling well, someone sits with her while the rest eat.  Last night, as I sat with Amy and she chatted about how much her head hurt and how nauseated she was, I heard a crash/thud and a yell, "Dad!  Uncle Lyle fell on the floor and his head is bleeding!"  Lyle has been victim of Montezuma's revenge for the last day and a half and it made him so light-headed he passed out at supper, fell on the floor and cut open his forehead.

Amy had a horrible night last night.  Lots of face pain and threw up multiple times.  It makes it tricky to try to guess if I should give her medicines again, or assume that she absorbed the medicine during the time it was in her stomach.

Today, some women from church came to make Amy one of her favorite dishes, causa.  It is a dish of layered mashed potatoes and vegetables with avocados and tuna.  It's quite good.  Amy sat in the rocking chair in the kitchen while they worked, which she enjoyed.
