Superman

Today's post is dedicated to Bob Terry.

Yesterday he accompanied aunt to her hip doctor appointment.  In an effort to move quickly to surgery she had to cram 3 days of pre-op tests into one afternoon with him wheeling her from station to station.

He says "fortunately the guy doing the chest xray could get her in position.  We had to get more people to get the urine sample."

He left our house at 11:00 am.  I know this because I was in bed with bronchitis/laryngitis, wondering whether I should have gone with him.

He returned at 6:00 pm.  In addition to requiring little to no decompression time when he got home, he managed to keep aunt joking and laughing even as she started to get depressed toward the end of the day.

Both of them are an inspiration.  Do your best.  Stay happy.  Be the boss of your brain.

Goodhusbandbob sounds a lot like goodhusbandsmokey -- able to keep himself and others laughing.
