3 Too Many

Friday 23 November Ramble

“Sometimes we expect more from others because we would be willing to do that much for them.” – Unknown

Once again it took bloody ages to get to sleep, then had a restless time, but feel I’ve had a solid sleep.  Wake about 6 in real pain and head down to get meds on board.  Then back to bed for an hour to let them do their thing on me.  Up then at 7 and not much improvement on the pain – in for a day like this – f’ it!! Get ready for the day, have a piece of toast for brekkie, then out the door.

Drop Lachie at school, then me in town.  A pleasant shuffle into the office – it was definitely slower than normal.  Get in and spend most of the time there closing my eyes wishing the pain would just die away.  But it doesn’t.  I keep on taking as many pain killers as I am allowed to trying to get this under control.  Head home about 1pm and call the hospital on the way to get their advice on whether I go to se them (I don’t want to do that) or if I can up my meds a bit more.  They go away to get the doc’s opinion of what to do, but they don’t want to see me – Yay!!  They get me to up my meds instead as I see the Doc on Monday arvo anyway so will get some proper real meds then.

In case you are wondering the pain is called Neuropathic pain and is caused by the cancer and Chemo.  SoI’m stuffed either way.  It is just the way it is.  Pleae don’t worry as there is nothing anyone can do about it really.  But the whole day has been about a 5-7 on the pain scale.

Quiet arvo and evening then as still hurting lots even with the upped meds.  Hopefully I’ll just sleep it off.  So very short and sweet blog today , ass it is even hurting to type.  Have a good weekend.  Take care.

A bit of a laugh that somes up most nights for me ….

How true – every night.

Kia Kaha.

      Hi Mark,

      There is something going on with the blog site it seems. If you do an F5 it will get you up to date. Will have to do the coffee soon for sure.

      Cheers, Tony.
