Chemo yesterday..
Almost that is.
He was scheduled for chemotherapy yesterday. It seems they scheduled him a week early and we didn’t get much accomplished. His pain level was very high and his mood was very low. Even though I noticed the pain and mood levels were not so great, I still feel he is better on the whole than he was even after first coming home. Yes every movement is agony, but he seems to be able to adjust and handle it better. Still moving a bit faster than he was at first.
Its a very frustrating thing, we seem to be in wait mode, deal with pain and wait. Wait to see if chemo will work, wait to see if pain improves, wait to see if he will live this time. Waiting to see if you will live is the worst kind of waiting.
I’ll record here so I don’t forget, I changed his morphine patch this morning, 7am. It is due for another change on Friday morning 7am.
I’ll be ordering a tushie cushion for his bed sores today, we’ll carry it with us for doctors visits and chemo so he has something to sit on that keeps the pressure off his pressure sores. I’ll also order the bed rail.
