October 14 & 15, 2010

Yesterday the training continued and Pop Pop made it several mailboxes beyond the day before with fewer stops. He was moving like a champion! Carlos, the competition is on. Or perhaps I should wait a few days before making any wagers, Pop Pop was unable to walk today. He went for his blood test at Rex and the doctor sent him home. Upon arrival Nurse Lucha contacted Ranju from UNC to discuss the results and Ranju and Dr. Roberts felt Jimenez should have a blood transfusion (see labs below). However, since he had seen Dr. Zietler today at Rex, they had to follow his orders (which was he wanted Pop Pop's numbers to be slightly lower). Ridiculous office politics now has him on hold feeling like crap (excuse my French) until Monday. In the end Ranju told him to save his energy (just what Nurse Lucha has suggested all along) and really relax.

Which brings us back to movie rentals...what should I get him???

Now, for the entertainment portion of today's update ... picture. Not of Pop Pop, but of Ed or should I say Ed's head! I am so proud of him for growing his hair out to at least 8 inches to donate to Pantene Beautiful Lengths http://www.pantene.com/en-us/beautiful-lengths-cause/default.aspx . Pantene makes wigs to donate to woman who have lost their hair to cancer treatments!

The real question here is should Ed also grow his beard to 8 inches??? Vote in the poll on the right!

I need to get more pictures from Eduardo from when Caroline and Harrison have visited Pop Pop, I haven't been able to post any only because we don't visit Pop Pop at the same time (he shouldn't have too many people in the house). Jimenez sent me this one today and I love it...so pretty.
