December 10 Final Update

I’m recovering from my two-weeks in the local hospital while I also recover from Friday’s chemo treatment. My stomach is not happy, but I’m gobbling down my ginger pills to keep it quiescent. I’m feeling quite tired, but I THINK I recovering from my chemo a bit better than before.

My walking is getting a bit better. I can now generally get myself from a sitting to a standing position in one try and without assistance. Going up stairs are still a challenge. I have realized that when you go up stairs, on each step you raise your whole body on one leg at each step.

I have yet to be upstairs in the house. I just don’t have the strength to go up the stairs. Hopefully that will change soon.

I will tell you, two weeks in the hospital will severely reduce your physical abilities.

I continue to count myself lucky to have the Vorlon Wife. She takes better care of me that I deserve.

Now, I’m off to bed.

We don't know if you are using a walker? If you aren't one would be very helpful in getting around and strengthen your legs.
