Well, today was not much different. Court was able to sit up and eat at the dinner table for lunch. She upgraded from chicken broth to chicken noodle soup (organic, of course). She got some limeade ice that seemed to be a success. And can now watch TV with the sound off for awhile until she gets nauseous.
The drainage tubes are still an issue for both of us. I try to put on a brave face but it just grosses me out! I really think when those come out, she will improve tremendously. I've left 3 messages with nurses to call me back about changing her pain medicine. The pain is not the issue... it's the nausea. We lowered the dosage from 15ml to 5ml and that seems to help for now.
Cant' wait to see the docs this week and get some more positive news. This is the tough part so all the prayers for patience, peace, rest, you name it is welcome!
thanks,
Matt & Court
Thanks for the update. We're praying for rest for both of you and peace as well. Hope to see you both soon! Love and hugs!
