HUNGRY GERALD

Fractured hip recuperation is a difficult and painful time for HG. The simplest thing is a mighty challenge. Fortunately, HG’s wife BSK is a great nurse. BSK does everything possible to ease HG’s plight. BSK washes, showers, dresses the old guy. BSK gets HG into bed, helps HG to stand up, and sit down. The amount of things BSK does for BSK is staggering. Not surprising that BSK is exhausted at the end of the day. BSK does all of the financial and household management chores in addition.  And, BSK cooks. Great comforting food with an emphasis on protein.  Korean “Fire Chicken”, Israeli shakshuka are some recent taste tinglers. HG/BSK celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary this summer.  We’ve had great times. This is a tough time but hopeful we’ll get through it.
