Today, I felt good, and Dale tried to feel well, but the after chemo effects have begun. Tired, weak voice, diarrhea. Hair has not gone back yet, but weight is still down. It comes down to a day at a time, sometimes less of a day and things turn around in either direction. Dale tries to keep positive even on days as this when he has such low energy and wants to "get things done." He gets something in his mind that needs attention and so it is, until it is completed. My focus is to keep him comfortable and without added stressors or negativisms. He really needs continuous care and consideration to keep well. That's what I do. Take care that Dale is taken care of. Look at his eyes. Hope in first picture, weariness in the next.
