Saturday 21 July 2007 = THEN
I am writing this in the early hours of
the morning. Mam and Conor came in today. My mum in law went home to Cork.
I am very lucky to
have the Mum and the Mum in law that I have as they are keeping the show on the
road for us at home.
Conor has been a little treasure to me since I’ve been in
here. He has come with drinks, he has come to talk and he has come just to sit
with me when I have been unable to talk.
Bryan came up today again – he
must be worn out with all the running around. We sat on the bed together and I
just needed to be held. We sat for ages just holding on, not speaking. I think
we are both too shocked and numb to talk.
HUGE NEWS:
I managed to walk to the hospital shop
with Bryan – it was a major achievement. I kept my sunglasses on as
I didn't want to frighten small children.
I got myself a can of Club Orange and
I drank it all – it went down and it was like the nicest thing I have ever
tasted in my whole life. Cold and sweet and refreshing and just manna!
About a half an hour later it all came
back up, it was just too much for my stomach to take.
One step forward and two steps back.......so frustrating..........when will I be able to eat and drink normally again? I still haven't managed any food. The last bite to eat was on July 4th.
Saturday 21 July 2012 = NOW
Busy day doing all the things I like. Good food cooked at home on the BBQ. Yes we had a BBQ. We seized the two to three hours of warmth and clear skies and stoked up the BBQ. There was a nice glass of fizz too.......
