Flying home

Well the trip to Arkansas has taken a turn for the worse. Gary felt very tired on Fri but we thought it was due to the Wed/Thurs travel. But he felt worse on Sat. So we decided to fly home today, rather than make the 12 hour drive home tomorrow and Mon. I have an oxygen monitor with me and his oxygen drops very low when he just walks a short distance and he is very short of breath. We also have portable oxygen with us so he can use that during the day - he usually only uses it at night. I expect that his heart is in a funky rhythm or he is in fluid overload.

Gary's aunt and uncle rode with us and they will drive our pickup home and then we'll figure out how to get it home to Austin (they live about 5 hours north of us). Our daughter will pick us up and take us to the ER so we can see what is wrong with him. Fortunately, he is fine, just tired, when he is sitting still.
