I got up with Katy, who was already dressed. I lasted only one descent of my stairs, and one ascent, and had to go straight back to bed. I have been in bed all day.
Martha and Katy took themselves to school. Katy made me breakfast and Martha made me some tea.
My community nurse came to visit; I called yesterday to ask for help. She is observing the swelling in my eyes, and recommends that I follow what my body is saying. I stay in bed.
Tomorrow, my Macmillan nurse will visit, and my community nurse will talk with him so that he can be part of the monitoring of my health.
Lisa and Iona brought the girls home from school (thanks). Tanya brought round a back of groceries last night, too - Martha and Katy have felt very spoilt :) :)
I did have a chat on the phone with in-law Margi.
Wishing you all a good week
love

Sounds like it is really rough for you right now, I guess a large part is the dose cut you have taken on the steroids. I know you want to get off them but maybe it is a step to far right now on top of the chemo ? Lot sof love being sent your way . H x
ReplyDeleteLots of love from me too. I'm glad you called your community nurse and asked for support. It's also good that you're listening to your body.
ReplyDeleteI hope this phase passes soon.
