Slow rehab

Dizziness, fatique, and stomach pains won out today. When Dale stands up, he sits first to gain balance, and then continues to stand, but even the slow stand brought dizziness. It happened several times today, which is concerning. Not only did he not sleep well, but his fatigue level seemed to have increased. He reports that his stomach aches and does not keep food in there for very long. Something else must be going on. We go to the bone marrow transplant doctor tomorrow for more direction about BMT. It will be day 30 for BMT which means he adds another medication each day and that he has made it that far. I think it will be that each day will be independent of another day. Progress today does not mean more progress tomorrow. Changes come quickly and quietly. I may need to do short days at work to assist in more rehabilitation at a slow pace.
