Feb Update!
Feb. 6th, 2021 01:57 pmI figured I better start monthly updates since Life keeps getting so Interesting!
Moving: Almost done with our unit and demo finished on my Brother and his wife's. Since it took from ept to get this far, I'm HOPING by our 23rd anniversary(4/1;>) but I'm not holding my breath.
Chuck: Continues to slowly fail. Sleeps off-n-on pretty much 1:1 at 2 hr intervals. Poor appetite, basically crackers and Ensure. Hoping last Wednesday's appt with his MD got through to him that I KNOW he's not going to get better and all I want is him to be as comfortable as possible however so long he lives.
Me: Stressed(DUH!!!!;>) but doing ok Emotionally. All those decades of almost discorporating myself has got me pretty OK with the idea of Death....mine or others. It's just how miserable he often is that gets me. He's more uncomfortable than in Pain but he's never had much in the way of Pain Tolerance, which doesn't help. Also, he'd been healthy as a horse for the 1st 6 decades so he never had much experience with it. Weirdly, other than some weight gain my health hasn't been this good on paper since the early 80's with the exception of the Diabetes, which is actually better than this time last yr. I'm down 90 units daily from then.
Still in limbo....
Cheers,
Pat
