so...... Day 4...

Two units of Blood. Some cream corn. Some guava juice.  Not bad for day 3. She is doing great and not feeling too bad.  Showering, walking and engaging with people.  Sometimes she just goes to sleep but then that is a big part of this.  Rest, deep sleep that allows the body to heal its self.  She would report that at night they wake her up for lots of things.  Her meds beep, she has to be weighed, she has to have her vitals taken, she has to be sleeping on her back to have her labs drawn. 

She does sleep a lot during the day.  Yesterday I made sure she was on the day bed early so that she could sleep in the sun, with the shade drawn.... of course

The business week of Cancer is over so today we settle in to some more quiet and waiting. Waiting is good.  It gives you time to think and pray and realize how much the world swirls around in hectic activity.  We so seldom are able to get off and take some time.  There is great value in down time and quiet time and thinking time.
