Getting Pneumonia
On the 4th of Sept. I went to see the Doctor and he said I had a viral chest infection, but he would not give me antibiotics, as he said they would not help. But I was not coughing up anything, and by the weekend I was into pneumonia.
Paul has been just so kind and helpful, he started right away coming each evening after work. He tried to persuade me to call the ambulance and go to hospital but I kept putting it off, Saturday and Sunday. Joy was calling on the phone and I told her I was not feeling too well, not realizing that I had now started pneumonia. So Monday she called a very good Nurse friend here in Melbourne, to come and see me, but she was on Canteen, but said call the ambulance, and give them the heavy and get him to hospital, so she called Paul and he told the ambulance people that I was ‘confused’. It may not have been the right word, but I was making bad decisions.
