SUSIE AND BRO IN THE THERAPY ROOM
MR. B. TAKING A SHORT (BUT MEANINGFUL) WALK WITH DORIS
--------------------------------------------------------------
Michael felt ready to try family visits today. Although he enjoyed seeing his dad, step mom Susan and sister Susie, he felt overwhelmed by so many people at once and we now know to ask for one visitor at a time. Family only for a while.
He was nauseous again in the morning, darn it! I keep thinking I've problem-solved it when it comes back.
Then one of the nurses said nausea and dizziness is a somewhat a consistent part of this journey. Oh. Well, that would explain it - but I'm still glad I had them change the first antibiotic...
And in spite of the nausea, Michael continues to amaze. Pushy Doris the occupational therapist (OC), had him finish his last session with her by WALKING from his doorway to his bed! Boy, that made my day and same for Bill, Susan and Susie.
As for me, I left Michael at 9 pm and got a more solid night's sleep. Had to.
And my sweetie told me to - 'cause he's got my back.
