I just dropped Brooke off at school and poured myself another cup of coffee. She was so excited that today is pajama day. I can hear Al getting ready upstairs. He said he felt pretty queasy last night. He said he couldn't really concentrate and that his head was hurting. I told him not to push himself to stay up and get some rest. He seems to realize that he is going to have to listen to his body. He has been burping, belching and hiccupping for the past 2 days. The nurses said that all of the fluids are doing that to him. It's just lovely! He also needs to start eating smaller meals more frequently throughout the day. He said he is making an effort to take smaller bites and slow down. We are both just anticipating what it's going to be like when it starts to hurt to swallow. Meanwhile, he really wants to enjoy this time that he can taste his food. My sister is returning home today. Thank you Randi! Words cannot express our gratitude. And thank you Dave for loaning us your wife.
