New wound

Life is not at its best right now. K hasn't slept at night for the past week, so she's not been functioning well. This morning she showed me a new wound on her heel that will need attention. Her morning caregiver didn't show up Tuesday AM, or call to explain, which is worrisome, since she's had medical issues of her own in the past month, but I'm more focused on getting care for K. Home Helpers is doing a good job with providing replacements on short notice. Last night I stopped at Tokyo Joe's for a Yakitori Bowl (good!), and wondering if I shouldn't have (bad). I went to bed with a headache, and woke up with it much worse, then after I started moving around, realized I was also really nauseous. Ugh. Might be food poisoning, but coworkers are also talking about various illnesses ravaging the country right now, and wondering if they should quarantine me in my office. The good news is that K got a new prosthetic at IPOP on Tuesday, and afterwards was a walking maniac in Marczyk's, her favorite deli/grocery/specialty store on 17th near downtown Denver.
