I ended up taking Cowboy to the Doctor on Friday. He has a bad rash on his feet, legs, arms and back. The VA doc had thought it was just heat rash when we saw him on Tuesday and I was working on that but our regular internist doesn't think so. It is much worse every day. He gave him a steroid injection, said to keep his skin well moisterized and if it is not much better by Monday to come back. He also has a little bit of athlete's foot but that is easy to treat with Lamisil.
Last night I got in the shower with him andwashed him really good, then we slathered him down with body lotion. I told him to take his boots off today and he did for about 30 minutes and then he put them back on. I can't help but think he would be better off not wearing them right now.
I didn't get started with the painting although I took Cowboy with me and we went and bought it. Step 1. I have a sore ankle. Don't know why. Think I better rest it a day or two. Still have a week before my grandson shows up to finish so no worries (yet)
Tomorrow Marsha will be here for two hours so am going to run to Walmart for a few things. Can't seem to get going with the exercise plans. Still take the dog out early some mornings and walk with her but is not enough.
