Update On The Old Man

It's been two steps forward and three steps back.  The Old Man is healing great from the aneurysm surgery, and has been getting stronger every day.  But yesterday he discovered that the blisters from the skin issue, bullous pemphigoid, have come back.  We hope we caught it in time.  His dermatologist gave two prescriptions and said to get the filled if the blisters came back, so I did that today. I called and got to talk to his dermatologist and he said to just fill one of the prescriptions for now, and if that didn't help in a week, to call in the second prescription.  The Old Man had a few of the pills leftover from the last round a month ago, so he took them today.  We are going to try to stay optimistic that we caught this in time before it gets full-blown last back in the fall.

Stay tuned.
