Eileen and Melodie,
Gene did not have a fever after his r/c, he was too busy having dry heaves and the hiccups. But seriously that wasn't one of our issues Eileen, but if they aren't concerned not to worry, they will let you know if its an issue. Remember Mikes body has been thru sort of a trauma, so its going to be upset for a few days, in lots of ways.
Melodie, yes, I agree, he himself mentioned on Saturday he thinks its time to get back to his little job. He's only 15 minutes from home, and in a nice atmosphere, only 12 employees total. He worked 5 hours today and will increase his hours as he goes, thanks to his boss this is perfect for them both. And it can be a negative to always be thinking of whats happening in terms of the after effects of your r/c. And you can certainly get old real fast if you let things pull you down. He came home and said well I made it through the day without any problems with my bag, so for him its a big accomplishment. I always want him to feel like he accomplishes something, so not to get bored with all this. We have reservations for Vegas January 22nd for 5 days at the Mirage. A trip we had to cancel last new years because of his heart attack then subsequent bladder cancer. So we are using our air tickets from then and the Mirage held our 5 nites for us. So we'll try once more, and have some experience out and about with our friend the "bag"... How about that,",the bag goes to vegas " HE'S OUR BEST FRIEND......Ginger
