It's almost 4 o'clock and Jimmy hasn't had any fever today, but he's very weak and shaky. A short walk to the bathroom dropped his oxygen level to 86, and he was gasping for breath, even though he was hooked up to oxygen the whole time.
He hasn't left the bedroom since Thursday, and we've been shuttling him back and forth from the bed to his chair. Shirley was here yesterday, so I got out for a little while to run a couple of errands, but other than that, I don't get out of earshot, in case he needs me. I'm about to OD on the Golf Channel, CNBC, and car shows.

I've been plying him with vegetable soup and fruit smoothies. We have one of those small blenders, and I add a big dollop of what we call "Kenny Powder" - an immune system boosting supplement we got from Kenny Youmans. Come on, Kenny Powder, do your thing!
