Not much to report but I promised you guys I would do better about keeping you informed on what’s going on with me and the family 🙂
Sleep is my best friend, and sleep is what I do. We’ve done some adjusting to my meds and have finally seem to have found a sweet spot where I’m ahead of the pain and nausea. I still have bouts of random throwing up that seem to correlate to the time I’m about due to have my excess fluid (ascites) drained – I’m due to be drained tomorrow which is such a nicer process now that my most awesomest hospice nurse ever does it right here in my living room.
My biggest obstacle remains eating, especially when I’m getting close to needing drained, my stomach just can’t tolerate anything. Most days I’m subsisting on apple juice, homemade applesauce from Daddio aka Michael, and water. On a really good day I can do a protein shake. I have tried things like soup on really good days but I just throw them up, I have no idea why 😞 I will continue to work with my doctor – never in my life have I ever been afraid of too much weight loss. I’m currently sitting at about 135lbs, and I badly need to figure this situation out so I don’t keep loosing what reserves I have left.
Several people have asked me to update my Amazon list – the last time I posted you guys went above and beyond and I literally cried from your generosity. Here were are over a year into this mess and you guys continue to generously support my family. Thank you doesn’t scratch the surface of the weight of my gratitude. Because I don’t leave the couch or bed much these days I didn’t have a good handle on what the household needs. After speaking with Tony he gave me a much better idea – we are on our last bag of cat food, but we are locked stocked and loaded with all the other pet food! He has also been a maniac with cleaning up the house, doing major organizational projects and revamping and as a result we could really use help with cleaning supplies. A little bit goes a long way 🧽🧹🧺
Thank you again for everything family. I will continue to update health stuff – sometimes without begging for crap! 😜 I love you all ❤️🩹
