i went out last nite dropped off his prescriptions and bought a few gifts while i waited for his medicine.
i came home with such anxiety, just knowing he was going to be upset.
he was actually happy about it! he was instantly in better spirits. so i know this was weighing heavy on him.

another thing...yesterday when he went to weigh in, he left his coat on this time and had weighed the same as last week. the nurse was glad that his weight was holding. when he handed me his coat to get his shot, i noticed 2 full water bottles, one in each of his pockets. i did not make a big stink about it in front of the medical team, but made him get back on the scale when the nurse was out of the room. he had lost 3 lbs in one week.
i told him next week, no coat. should i be concerned about the fact that he decieved the nurse? it wasnt a mistake on his part either, since he gave me a little smirk when i found the water.

thank u all,
teresa
