Ok ok ok, I got it, geeezish, Im being very derelict in my duty to you, giving updates about our warrior Rod. Yes he developed pneumonia on top of everything else, because of his weakened immune system from the advanced stage cancer. We got him right in to see his doctor and they gave him an injection as well as a prescription to combat this nemesis. The medication has helped a little, he is also taking 2 pints of egg flower or egg drop soup, which is very rich in protein, each day to keep himself very hydrated and feeling better. Thank you everybody for last night and the last few days......for your telephone calls and visits and texts. Not only do you help me keep organized but again we always address that unintended side effect of chronic illness or disease called or sometimes labeled youre alone but youre not feeling alone....... Better news is that we have been able to stop the weight loss, or at least slow it down considerably. What we need in case any of you have a favorite, is recipes with olive oil. Looking for salads like one with feta cheese tomatoes cucumbers and the like that you can drizzle olive oil over and there is a dip, a olive oil dip that several restaurants serve with toasted bread that Rod enjoys. If any of you happen to know offhand all of the ingredients, please be kind enough to share that one. I am going to contact several Italian restaurants locally. Talked to a fellow ACC patient in Chicago yesterday who is a very wonderful individual with a great sense of humor and just happens to be Lebanese. As we discussed her situation and she was asking me for pointers and options... we talked about the benefits of olive oil or a Mediterranean diet. I am trying to eliminate white sugar from Rods diet altogether. The big news is that Rod has had two full days of being virtually pain free everywhere in his body, a sensation he is not enjoyed since the May 2013 motor vehicle accident.
