Today has been an improvement on yesterday, thank god.
Holly slept really well and woke feeling just slightly sick. After her anti-sickness meds kicked in she felt fine and proceeded to have weetabix for breakfast, followed by a bacon sandwich,, followed by 2 cakes followed by scrambled eggs on toast!!!
After all this food she slept most of the afternoon on a very full tummy. It was fantastic to see her eating so well and feeling better.
After her sleep she felt rubbish. She has felt sick throughout the evening and has not improved much since. It is a good job she ate so much earlier as her appetite has now disappeared though she is still drinking. I think we will all be glad when this chemo is over.
On a happier note the Little Monsters are doing great without me (thanks to my wonderful mum) and Ben is also coping! Apparently the house is "calm and quiet", I'm not sure what he was implying by that....

Well done Holly for managing to eat, it's important that you keep your strength up, but no wonder you woke up feeling sick after all that! Mick will have his work cut out to keep up!!
ReplyDeleteI think it's important to make your room as cosy as possible and every little thing in there that gives you comfort and a desire to get out to see or do again is a good thing.
We are certain that the positive stimulation (like pictures of his cousins, his favourite beach etc etc) had a massive uplifting effect of Gabriel and gave him the strength and desire needed to get through this phase of the journey.
Well done Holly, we're all thinking of you and wishing you well.
Gabriel's Daddy.
