Bill has a cold

[Dawn]

Bill started getting sniffly last night & I rubbed his chest down with vicks. This morning he awoke with sniffles, congestion, watery eyes, & a cough. Shannon has the same thing, but I was afraid to give Bill any meds until I checked with his dr. I mean he takes some pretty powerful drugs already for seizures & then his blood thinners & other meds. I did reach one of the PA's at the Dr. office & found out it's OK to give him a decongestant. I did, but I'm going to keep a close eye on him anyway. I noticed his motor skills are sluggish today ...from being run down I'm thinking. I talked him into taking a nap & I'm giving him lots of fluids.

I hope he's feeling better soon.

Thanks Sapphyre. He seems to be feeling a bit better today. The last couple days he's been sleeping on & off all through the day. Today he's doing more of his normal activities.
