it is good that things seem better anyhow

 Woke up sick, so sick that there was no question of having breakfast. The whole body felt bloated, going to the toilet is agony.

Stay in bed, try to sleep. There will be a doctors appointment at two twenty, he may be able to deal with it.

At eleven in the morning things have improved just a bit. 

The son comes up to the room and offers a cup of coffee, that is kind of him. He stays and keeps his father company, talking about various things. It is good to talk to him, it is good that he has settled so far that he will talk to his father.

The doctor uses his ultrasound device,  and establishes that everything is in order. He says that the urine sample showed signs of a bacterial infection, he said that he would write a prescription. He knows the man who did the operation personally, and spoke well of him. That was the end of the short visit to the urologist.

Buy the antibiotic tablets at the apothecary and then have a cup of coffee and a small piece of Apfel Strudel. The coffee is good and the cake is good too.

Go home and take the first pill. Lie in bed to get rid of the tiredness that just will not go away. It is too hot today. Take the first pill, this is the evening of the first day for this seven and a half day course of medication. There is an early evening storm, there is rain and wind outside, the air gets cooler.

Wake up after a few hours, things seem to be better already. Perhaps this is impossible, but it is good that things seem better anyhow.
