Jokes from the Third Grade

    He slept well last night, wasn't nauseous this morning.
Ate all his breakfast which was a sausage, cheese and egg burrito with salsa, hash browns in a triangle shape with catsup, fruit cup, AJ and ensure.
      Kristie sent another children's video with jokes for Mr. K. Here it is:

Mr. K sent them a joke: How do you make a turkey float?
You take 2 scoops of ice cream, some root beer and a turkey. Ha ha
      
     They put him on a tilt table this morning. He usually can do 30 degrees, then gets nauseous. Today he made it to 40 degrees! Yeah he likes to feel the pressure on his feet.
      A nice lady is here doing an ultra sound. The machine is small and fits in a rolling backpack. She put gel on his left arm and holds a camera she called it a transducer that rolls on his arm. The machine looks like a laptop with well just look at the photo and that will help, maybe, explain it. She is looking at all the veins in the arm. She says the radiologist will look at the images. She downloads them to a computer and the radiologist looks at them.

     Bruce is cold, got him a heated blanket. For lunch he had a French dip sandwich, (Did I tell you he was born in France? Fontainebleau, France, military brats, his father was in the Air Force) garden salad, vanilla ice cream and ensure. He held the sandwich and did the dipping.
       Bruce slept most of the afternoon. They got him up in the chair and we went on a field trip to the gym. I read him some news from the iPad. We read about the three feet of snow in New York and he says, "and we were worried about 8 inches."
   I showed him the cafeteria where I eat and a small classroom next to it. We will ask if we can use it when some of the children come for Thanksgiving. 
     He is listening to Post Captain by Patrick O'Brien the year is 1803, during a lull in the Napoleonic war. It combines the sea battles of C S Forester and drawing room dynamics of Jane Austen. The reader did the Harry Potter series, he is good.

     Dinner was meat in a mater sauce, smashed taters, gravy and pepper, corn, vegetable soup, ensure. He was tired so I fed him.
     I set up another CD for him to listen to.
