Ann's message this morning: I have had the nasogastric tube in for a day. For some reason it seems to sit better in the left side of my nose than the right. While it was out, there were a series of tests, measurements, etc. out of concern for what the tube would restrict. Our team of doctors are very competent and efficient. My one critical comment is that they talk to each other but not to me! Yesterday I was anemic and had low sodium levels, Apparently, cancer will bleed even if not provoked. It also stops bleeding too! I usually write the post of the day in the dawn. It is a beautiful time of day, and I find it very positive for me, even if it is raining or snowing, but always when it is glowing and anticipating a good day to follow. Enjoy this Palm Sunday. Thanks for supporting and following with us. -- Ann, Jack, Janet and David
From Jack this morning: Ann was discharged from Palliative care and is now home with support from the Extramural program. She is very pleased to be home, has a hospital bed, wheelchair, etc. She enjoys looking at the garden, and for the first time in a long while was outside in the fresh air and in the sun. Janet and family are mostly looking after her, and my sister, Margaret, is here to help. However, Ann is in great need; please pray for a dramatic improvement. We are very grateful for much help and support we have been blessed with.
That is a blessing! Prayers continue for you all. Merle
