Today’s goal
was for George to get up and move around just a little bit more. He did so this morning as he made his way to
his desk to check on bills, balances, etc.
This afternoon he has not moved too much at all. We both are still trying to catch up on sleep
that we missed for two weeks. Even I
managed an hour and a half resting time during which I may have dozed a couple
of times.
Today it was
sort of back to normal for me as I had to get Mom up, dressed and driven to
SarahCare. It gave me a chance to go to
the grocery store for a few more things while leaving George to his own
defenses.
His biggest
problem today is that he woke up with a mouth full of canker sores and sores on
his lips. This has made eating rather
difficult as everything stings. Our
neighbor just stopped in and told him to do warm salt water rinses. Hmm, good idea!
We enjoyed
the left over dinner that our neighbors brought over last night. Decided to do “dinner” for “lunch” and then lunch
can be something more simple.
As things
settle down I may not journal/blog every day – sort of depends on if there is
something to write about. It is good to
feel as though things are moving towards less stress, less activity, less
worry. Moving forward we will still be
needing to deal with the aftermath that cancer brings. How to live with it, understand the feelings
and emotions that have been going on and will continue to go on to some degree. Many deep seated emotions have been in play
for the past 9 weeks and some will warrant further observation. But, for now, we are content with slow,
steady progress.
