8/1/10 (Sunday): Well, it looks like we're once again in the medical loop instead of the vacation loop. The day we got to Michigan for a visit with the kids, Wiley got an infection in the pulse generator in his chest. Long story short, he spent several days in the University of Michigan Hospital and had the lead removed. They were able to leave the electrodes in the brain. He took massive doses of IV antibiotics for several days. He's been released now on oral antibiotics. We decided to cancel the trip to Boone :( and stay here in Michigan. Hopefully, once the infection is cleared up, they'll be able to re-implant the pulse generator and lead. We wanted to stay near a major hospital and near family in case (God forbid) anything else goes wrong.
The good news is that we're in a beautiful campground and are enjoying visiting with Tom and his family. We hope to do some traveling around this area and possibly even into Canada (we're only a short ride from Toronto).
For those of you who keep up with us via Facebook, I'm having some trouble with my connection. I'm able to read your comments and I can access it from my phone, but not my computer. So, be patient and in the meantime, let's keep in touch via email and/or this blog.
Peace!
Joyce and Wiley

- Joyce and Wiley
- We took early retirement from careers as Executive Assistant (Joyce) and Lawn Care company owner (Wiley). We have been full-time RV'rs since March, 2006. We've taken our RV to Maine, Michigan, California, North Carolina and everything in between. We live in Florida in the winters and travel in the summers. It's a tough life, but someone has to live it!
