Saturday - Home Health - Etc

Harry had a good night.. His blood sugars were really low most of the day yesterday but they are coming back up - which is good.

The side effects of this chemotherapy are more predominant than the last ones and they have greatly reduced the strength and kind of steroid he is on - so he has a little less energy for now.

Yesterday home health and occupational health came to the house to evaluate him and the house. Next up is a PT Therapist named Chris - have not met him yet.

We have hired one of his Mom's CNAs Lillie, to assist while I am at work and to be for him. She a very nice lady.

The occupational therapist will come back in a week to re- assess him, so the nurse will visit 2 times and the PT guy everyday except Sunday - I think.

He is asking to do things today he has not in the past week - so I am encouraged.

My husband is a remarkable man for fighting the way he has, I would not have his courage. Neither he nor God are obviously through yet. So it is in their hands and it is their decision.

Thanks to all who have been so kind and to God for dropping the right people at the right time with the things we need when we need them. This has not been an easy journey but it has been one that has opened doors, shown us grace and hopefully allowed us to do the same.

Now I have to straighten out the house..

Take care..

Mona
