"Just the Facts"-- Still very weak, doctors visit, infusion visit for IV meds. New medicine.
We had a fairly decent day today. We only spent 5 hours at the doctors and infusion, didn't throw up and walked 4 laps in our court yard. We look pretty pathetic, but not too many people get to see, (thank goodness)! That rash was nasty as it has left a wake of peeling skin. Not just on the back like a sunburn, but everywhere, and all at once too. It is driving B crazy as he takes his hygiene very seriously. So this is one big obstacle for him. I finally was able to get him to gently exfoliate with a super soft mesh sponge with a super hydrating body wash. It has been helping a bit, but he won't let me put lotion on, gives him the creeps to think about it. We were able to get rid of 2 pills on his schedule which total 7 per day, but we added 1 old one back and 1 new one. So we are still ahead. This new one may turn a few heads, as this is the very well know drug from the 70's or 80's or anytime after for that matter. Seems it is used to entice appetite or otherwise known for causing "the munchies" figure it out yet? Yes, B and little 80 year old ladies are taking medical marijuana now. All I can say is this should be interesting.
Do you believe in angels? Well I do. I believe that they come in all shapes and sizes and in various forms. I have had a few angles appear here and there over the past few weeks and it has blessed us so much. One brought by a bag or some 20 different kinds of drinks for B to try. The first one we selected was a hit! I have barely cooked this week for myself or the girls due to some lovely angels who have culinary gifts. And that mailman is getting busier by the day, with such blessing of encouragement and kindness. Then there is this one angel that never lets my cupboards or refrigerator run dry. I continually get little e-mail blurbs from very thoughtful and timely angels sending a blessing along the way. I can't tell you how the heart surges with a warm feeling of delight and pure happiness that an arm of love has been extended out to us. I can only hope that I at some point in the future will act in a similar fashion when a friend in needs presents itself. These angels will remain unnamed here, but the One who records all acts of kindness is keenly aware of each wonderful blessing and stays on top of every thought or deed performed as a gift. Bless all you angels out there, each and every one.
Until next time,
Hopeful Believer.
