Day 17 of 29 day Induction Phase

On September 30, 2012 by Michelle Love

So Friday was a horrific day. We finally left the hospital at 10pm….after 11 1/2 hours at the hospital, and what I had expected would be a 2 hour appointment.

BJ slept most of the time we were there. He slept while he was getting the 2 units of blood. He slept most of the day yesterday too. He didn’t talk very much, didn’t eat his usual trough-full of food, and just laid on the couch. It’s so hard seeing him like that. He’s usually so active. Even with what he’s gone through in the past 2 weeks, he’s not felt as bad as he did the last 2 days.

This morning, he slept until 10am. Thankfully, he woke up and is feeling better. He has a headache, but he’s up and talking, and ate 4 toaster waffles. It’s so good to hear his voice, and see that little sparkle in his eyes.

When I gave him his medicine this morning, he commented that he felt like an 80 year old man who has to take a handful of pills every day. 🙂 There’s that sense of humor again.

I want to thank you all for your comments in the Guestbook. He reads them, and it helps him to realize how many people care about him and are thinking of him and praying for him.
