DAY 15: RECOVERY
Richard’s hives do seem much better today. They are faded almost completely on some parts of his body, but are still red on others, like on his back (he slept on his back). They spread down the backs of his legs to his calves last night. His hands and feet are a bit swollen. Hives do cause swelling under the skin and having this around your digits can, I imagine, be uncomfortable.
He’s napping again this morning because of the Benadryl. The boys are still asleep, too. I just took a picture of them. The flash made Mason stir but he didn’t wake up. Good thing, too…cause I need to get some work done and the wifi here is the fastest we’ve found on this trip!
I asked Richard if he wanted to stay an extra day. We could just double up on our driving tomorrow. He said no. He wants to get on the road. I’m going to make him a spot on the bed so he can keep his feet up while we’re driving to help with the swelling. We have to go to the grocery store today so I need to plan a couple of meals for the next two days. I’ll do the shopping while the boys can stay in the RV with Daddy.
I can pack up everything and get road-ready inside the RV. One thing Richard must do is unhook the water, electricity and sewer. In all the years we’ve been RVing now, I’ve never learned how to do that. I realized this morning that if something happened and I had to do it, I’d be in a pickle. Of course, I’m sure I could convince a nice male fellow camper to assist me but I don’t want to bother other people.
