First Full Day In Apartment









 Hey everyone, Andy posting tonight. Unfortunately Cath threw up a very yummy Shepards Pie that Hailey made for us. That was about 7, a half hour after she ate and had taken her evening meds. The amount of meds Cath takes is crazy, a few of the critical ones are taken 3x a day, with many others sprinkled in throughout the day. I had to wake Cath at 9:30 this morning because I didn't want her med schedule to be condensed for morning and Noon. Ideally she should have her morning meds at 8 am. I'm going to have to get tough with her!😂 Cath had such a wonderful nights sleep, no nurses checking in every 3 hours. I hope she gets many more to come. Her energy levels are still very low. Her first clinic appointment is at 10:30 am, to draw blood and then get evaluated by Dr. around 11. On her non clinic appointment days, Tues.,& Thur, Sat & Sun. I get to flush her Tri-port with Heparin. 3ml in each one. A sterile procedure that isn't hard but following the steps is the key. We do that about the same time each day around 7pm. We had a joyful FaceTime call with Cam & Hailey and the kids. Poor June has Chicken Pox, but it seems to be a mild case.  Cath is peacefully sleeping on the couch ordering a meal from the hospital from her mumblings I gathered. It gives me peace when she is peacefully in slumber, knowing she isn't dealing with the constant yucky feelings she has during her waking hours. She has to endure much discomfort over the next 3-6 months, so your continued prays and notes of encouragement are very helpful and appreciated! God bless you all! Andy out.

Ya, I'm starting cytotoxic chemo tomorrow.

The good and the bad - accepting both.
