Brad had a good day. I don't know if it's the excitement that he doesn't have to go to treatment tomorrow or if he's really feeling a little better, but I'll take it regardless of the reason!!!
Yesterday I downloaded the movie, The Fighter for him to watch. I thought it would help pass the time while getting his treatment ~ YAY ~ it worked. He said the movie was very good and it helped occupy his mind for a bit. I'm sure it also helped that his nurse returned today ~ she's taking good care of him!!
His appetite still isn't that great, but he is eating small meals and drinking lots of fluids. He's lost 4 lbs since Monday. I know 4 lbs isn't anything to worry about, but I can already see some slenderizing in his facial features.
This evening I wanted to do something to get him out the house, and lift him out of the funk he's been in but also not bring him around too many people. So after dinner him and I went and took a ride out to the Kenner Boat Launch (the kids didn't want to come, and we didn't want to force them, so they stayed with Nanna & Kappy ~ Thanks guys!). I know we didn't go to far and your probably think that's not to exciting, but it's the small things that make him "smile". It was a beautiful night and Brad really enjoyed getting out.
Before I say goodnight I wanted to share a poem that was sent from a friend.
Sometimes we hit a pot hole, as we travel down life's road.
The way gets rather bumpy, and we bear a heavy load.
Always keep your FAITH, no matter what you do
Because the path with Jesus will be smoother for you!
until tomorrow....
Glad yall had some time together!! It's the little things that matter the most. Remember to STAY STRONG!! We are all praying :)
ReplyDeleteGlad your first week is over. Going off somewhere's helps ease the mind and soul it allows you to connect with your "person". A smile at the end of a tough week is saying I CAN and WILL do this...Keep smiling, keep the faith and stay strong..Good for you Sabrina for being Brads person this week and bringing a smile to his face. May God give you strength and see you through this journey..With Heartfelt care Aunt Sheila
