Posted: Sun Apr 13, 2014 9:39 amWe've actually been here in southern Arizona for a couple days. The morning of my last post Bill got up and we put in a marathon day. A little over 500 miles on Mexican highways - through several check points and the border crossing. Left Los Mochis at 9 got to AZ at 8. We are staying here until middle of next week.
Yesterday Bill went to see a doctor here and he still has signs of infection, inflammination and blood in urine. So some was sent out for culture and maybe his meds will be changed though the results stayed the same as they were one week ago in Mexico. So it is not getting worse. But doctor strongly suggested he go to our doctor and urologist as soon as we get home. She will call us Monday or Tuesday with the results of culture. So will know more then.
In the mean time he is feeling good but tires easily - after a 500 mile day I'm not surprised.
Don't know if I mentioned but the day before we left Mazatlan our refrigerator quit working. Luckily it was an easy fix - just bypassing the recall fix that was done last year. But that was the "straw that broke the camel's back" so to speak. We were on the road the next morning.
He spent over 25 days in hospital between the two sessions! Our Blue Cross insurance covered it all. The cars transmission had to be replaced. The Alfas windshield got cracked (got it fixed there and it is holding so far) Any way it was an interesting winter.
Going home will depend on the weather some what - not sure which way we'll go - fastest is up through Oklahoma City to Tulsa and across Missouri, Illinois and into Indiana. We'll see.
Still keeping the blog up.
