Tim was able to get a bit more sleep last night but he still had quite a bit of pain. Of course, having to get up about every 45 minutes because of the amount of fluids you are receiving does tend to cut into the sleep also.
The physical therapist came in today and adjusted some things with the recliner chair in his room and dug out a couple spots for him. That did seem to make a bit of a difference.
He was able to get rid of all IV meds around noon today so we were able to do most of our walking without dragging his friend along. I think that sometimes throws his body off trying to push that thing and not run into it or anyone else with it!
Numbers are still going down so we are not at the lowest point yet. He still seems to feel fairly good. The nausea comes and goes. At lunch he started eating his meal and said it was good but all of a sudden he just felt like he couldn’t eat any more of it. Some meals he can and some meals he can’t.
PRAYER REQUESTS:
For an even better night of sleep tonight now that the IV fluids and chemo are done. We are also hoping that the pains he has been having will be reduced with those finished.
PRAISES:
That physical therapy was able to address some of his issues so quickly.
That he was able to get a bit more rest than the night before.
