Day +14

Day +14

We had a pretty good day here.   WBC was up to .8,  platelets were up to 46.  Doctor seemed pleased with the numbers.   

   Jon’s throat is still pretty sore but he did order some fruit at noon and ate a little cantaloupe and oranges.  Not a lot but it’s a start.  I think part of the problem is that nothing tastes good,  nothing tastes right  (side effect of the chemo).  But Jon knows that he has to eat and drink so he’s working on it.

  He still has some rounds of nausea but hasn’t gotten sick for a few days so that helps a lot.  

  He did his walks  yesterday and today.   (Nurse Kristin was pleased).  His mood is pretty good.   His voice is stronger in the morning.  Although he sleeps off and on thru the day, you can tell by evening his voice is more strained and he’s more tired.

  All in all,  things are pretty good.   God hears our prayers.
