Day 5, Treatment #3
After a fragmented night of hot, cold, awake, asleep, up to the bathroom, up for medicine, back to bed, turn this way, stretch my legs out, man I'm hot, Dan's got his covers up to his ears, (the window is open a good 5 inches, with the wind blowing in, on my side), sheesh, I finally cooled off, doze off to sleep, well, you get the idea... It was finally morning and time to get up. And I was hungry.
My tummy was still questionable, and my taste buds are definitely affected, but I fixed my breakfast and ate it. It wasn't all unpalatable, just not 100% yummy. My tongue is "numb" around the perimeter.
I showered, dressed, and got laundry started. (We decided to wash the bed...) Over to the sofa, I dozed off, while Daniel went out to get groceries.
He came back in with the goods, I had made the bed, and I was resting again. I woke up, was hungry again, and had a bite to eat. I was realizing that I was feeling better. I stayed awake, mostly, for a couple hours, then took myself to the nursing home.
Mom was quiet, she still has a cough and a runny nose, though it's clear now, and I got her tucked into bed.
Home again, I'm feeling darn right better. I had a bowl of cereal, which didn't bother my mouth as much as I thought it might, and I am finding myself actually smiling!!! Woo Hoo!!! I made it!!
As I write here, I'm getting sleepy; it's 9:45. So, once again, I'll thank you for reading, for the prayers and positive energies that you each have been sending me. I'm sure that's been a major factor in my processes.... Hugs to all.
