Easy to care

My DH is making it so easy to care for him. He doesn't ask for much. He insist he's fine.
I'm grateful he's such a good patient.

Thanks

I wanted to say Thank you for the great comments, words of encouragement & prayers.
We really appreciate you all.
This journey has not been easy but encouragement helps.
Thank you!!

He's home

We brought DH home yesterday. We got almost home when he remembered something
at the hospital. I took him home & headed back out to the hospital.
I went & bought new pillows so he would have plenty. I returned home to find he needed a
prescription filled. Well, it was Sunday & our normal pharmacy closes early.
I went to a 24 hr pharmacy & they told me it would be 45 min. I come back & have a nightmare
experience. Long story short it took 2 hours to get the prescription.
It was 8 p.m. I was tired & hungry. I could feel a headache coming on because my blood sugar
was too low. I had lunch at 11 a.m.
Thank goodness the night went a little smoother. Not much but a little.
I'm working 1/2 days for the next few days.
I just checked on him; he's fine.

May I take your order

I've called G a few times today. The last 2 times I've called he's answered the phone funny.
One time he sd Captain D's, May I take your order. The next time I called he sd McDonald's, May I take your order. I'm glad he still has his sense of humor.

Colin

Many friends have asked how our DS is handling all of this situation.
I took him to the hospital Tuesday. He was kind of standoffish.
He would look over at G then he would look away. He did this a few
times. He did go over & give him a hug & kiss.
He had a bad dream that night. He normally laughs in his sleep so I
think he was disturbed seeing his daddy w/ all of the tubes.

My sister K took him trick or treating w/ them & then brought him to
the hospital Wednesday evening. He was less standoffish.

Last night he asked was daddy still sick & when will he come home.
He didn't want to go to the hospital.

Good spirits

Hubby ate solid food yesterday. Yeah!! Of course he sent back every tray & they had to bring
him something different. He is one of the pickiest eaters I know; the other picky eater
is his son!
I have put both of them on notice that our food at home will change. We will eat less empty calorie/empty nutritional value crap.
He did great with his walking around the nurses station yesterday. He was moving so much faster. Nothing like encouragement from the Dr the more he walks the sooner he will get out of the hospital.
We got a little more information from the oncologist. They want G to heal for a month then they will begin chemo. The chemo will be once or twice a week for 6 months.
Our spirits good.

Not so good news

Well G will have to do 6 months of chemotherapy. His lymph node tested positive for cancer.
It's a little discouraging. He improves every day.
