Good evening to all
How are you all? Hope all is well, here it is very cold, -23C. Andrea had a so so day, the Maxeran anti nausea seems to help, although she cannot handle the smell of food. Yesterday the doctors told her she might need an NG, or naso gastric tube put in to be able to get nutrition into her stomach as she is not eating at all. Since last Wednesday she has been getting all her nutrition by IV, but they don't like to do that long term because it is hard on the liver. So today they told her that today sometime they would like to put one in. She plead and begged them to wait till tomorrow as she was really dreading it, but the tube went in. It is quite uncomfortable and unsightly, it bothers her talking and swallowing some too. I told her that she had endured much bigger and scarier things before and that she would get used to it eventually. After they got it in she slept for 3 hours and was asleep again at 9;00pm. Now it is time to shut down here so good night to all.
thanks, Maynard
