Another Problem Day for Stacey

Linda came leading Stacey into the bedroom about 5:45 AM. She said Stacey was having some problems. She laid down beside me and I placed my arm across her arms so I could tell how often she was having involuntary movements. They were mild movements so I didn't give Stacey any Valium right them. After about an hour, Stacey was still having mild movements. Linda took over and I went into the kitchen to get a drink. Linda took Stacey to the bathroom and I heard a loud whack. Linda yelled for me and I went back to the bedroom to find Linda picking Stacey up off the bathroom's tile floor. Stacey had dropped like a rock and hit her head fairly hard on the floor. It popped up a knot on the back of her head. Linda wanted to give Stacey Valium, so we followed Dr Zhu's directions and gave her 15 mg. We took Stacey back to the bed after she had went to the bathroom. We both set in the bedroom and watched Stacey. She seemed to respond to the Valium and quit having any movements. She wasn't completely out of trouble though. In about an hour, Stacey seemed to get better. Later, I left the house around 11 AM to help Steve Riddle build a shed on the side of an old building at his place on Jone's Ridge. I gave Linda the cell phone number that Steve had and told her to call if Stacey became worse or she needed help. Up on the ridge, Steve Anderson, Steve Riddle and I cut the pressure treated posts and dug holes, then put the posts in the ground. We also screwed on several of the joist hangers and mounted the cross beams that hold the joists. We worked until about 5 PM and then I returned to find Linda and Stacey still in the bedroom. Linda had gave Stacey another 5 mg of Valium around 4:45 PM and Stacey was doing pretty good. I took a quick shower and then let Linda do something else for a little bit. She fed Daisy and then cooked some pork loins in BBQ sauce for our supper.
