Day 23

Yesterday was a good day for Jim. He dragged me out for a walk after dinner. He actually walked all the way down to the park (2 blocks) through the park and back home. He is tyring hard to build up his energy. He will be glad also when his stomach returns to normal. He is still living on anti nausea pills.

Today we are going to take the kids to a matinee. He can go to a theatre when it is not crowded. Spencer went to a matinee yesterday and said there were 8 people in the theatre. So, armed with his mask, a can of Lysol, hand sanitizer and a clean sheet to sit on, we will be off to the movies.

Have a great day!

Day 22

No, I have not abandoned the blog. I have not been feeling well, so the blog went by the wayside. Also, I will probably only update once a week.

Jim is doing well, or so he is told he is. The doctors say he is doing really well and will release him back to the care of his primary oncologist next week. He wishes he felt more like himself. His body took quite a beating so it is going to take time. For those of us who know Jim, we know that he does not enjoy just hanging out. He is a doer. Right now, he hangs out here, studies Chinese, plays with the kids, plays X-box and rock band, fiddles with the computer and rests alot. Yesterday, we drove down to the park and he walked around it (with his mask of course). It made him pretty tired but it was good for him.

Well, we are glad that we are on this end of the transplant. It can only get better from here. Thanks for your continued support.
