Nothing funny in my post today so I thought I should start off with a bad cancer joke
“I’ve just been diagnosed with a tumour. I was horrified at first, but it’s starting to grow on me”
Anyway yesterday after a rocky start was a good day. Managed to eat some mashed potato, got a lot of rest and although I didn’t get much sleep at least managed to have a relatively pain free evening.
This morning went to the dentist and he confirmed I had some significant gum disease that will need to manage through radiation therapy, I will have a follow-up appointment on Thursday to help with that situation.
Today is again about pushing for my four short-term goals:
• Stop waking up at 3 am in the morning and needing Morphine or the equivalent – Failed
• Sleep longer periods than my 6 week old which is 5 hours – Failed
• Consume more than 2800 calories in a day – not got past 1000 cal yet
• Be able to take a 20 minute light walk without being exhausted – REACHED!
Anyone wanting to come and say hi please feel free to-do so.
Until the next one…
Great to hear you are out of hospital and the cancer is now a stage 3 not 4. You must all be going through it though, thinking of you all. Can I come visit you all next week? I’ll send a text to see what day suits. Happy to do some babysitting too!! S
I’ll start worrying when I don’t read any dark humor on your posts! We’re thinking of you. Let’s Skype soon.
