Sunday-Day 3

Evening Folks,

Myself and the boys went into visit Sai today.He didn't really want them to come in as he just wants peace and quiet,he can't really take a lot going on roundabout him as he just feels wrecked most of the time.I took them in though as I felt it was important for all of us,their dad is in a new place too and they had to see that as well.They watched a DVD in the Sitting Room and saw a bit of Sai.I stopped off at Dunne's and bought Sai a new duvet /set as he felt the blankets too heavy on him.They had got him a quilt last night but it also was kind of heavy,anyway it made his bed look nicer when the nurses changed it all.The staff are all lovely.Sai constantly needs a jug of crushed ice so they have to blend the ice cubes for him.He asked me to try get an ice crusher machine but i couldn't get one (i just missed 2 on sale in Curry's!).

Being totally honest Sai needs help in sitting up and getting out of bed now.As you can only imagine he feels totally helpless.It's very hard to see my husband that I love going through this.It's just not fair-cancer is just a horrific disease.One day there will be a cure for it and thousands upon thousands of lives will be saved.

Also he had a bit of a temp last night ,the doctor who looks about 22yrs old put him straight on an antibiotic as Dr Higgins had left instructions if this should happen.It didn't rise again so that's good.We left him comfy in his recliner chair.His swollen ankles and legs are almost back to normal which is great.I've been massaging his feet and putting cream and almond oil on them as they were/are very dry with the chemo.It makes me feel a bit less useless being able to do things for him.We'll see how things go,

Nite,E.x.
