The last two days, Gus feels fairly good. He is getting up early in the morning and working before the heat of the day starts. He rests in the afternoon, and then goes back outside in the evening after it has cooled off. His hay chief, Dave, took the week-end off and went home to
Gus and I had a good laugh last night. Lane has not been around us when we "flush" Gus' PIC line. He has heard us talk about it and we have shown him the line and tried to explain its purpose.

Lack of an appetite is really an issue to us. Gus does his best to avoid his wife's daily question of what did the scales read today. He has lost a couple pounds since the dietician said he could lose no more. On Friday, we will go shopping for some high calorie drinks and start incorporating those into his normal day along with his medication.
