Day 11
Jared slept well last night. We had the usual visits from nurses along with trips to the restroom. The nurse came in to take blood around 3:00 a.m. and had a hard time at first. She was finally successful and said the line had a kink in it.
We got up around 7:00. Dr. Shipp came by and said we were now off quarrantine. I told him THANK YOU. Jared had an upset stomach so they decided to give him something to help him relax. His trips to the restroom slowed down after that.
William called and Adam was still feeling bad so they decided to go to the doctor. We did the usual and waited for Dr. Shipp to come by. When he left I went to change and get ready for the day.
Jared's chemo started around 10:30. He did fine until he tried to eat some pizza and then he threw up. The nurse gave him something for nausea. Jared then started feeling worse. He fell asleep soon after and slept until 4:00.
I had a quiet afternoon. I talked with Darla, Pastor Lynn and Rhonda. Adam called and we talked for a while. Mrs. Rhonda and the child life specialist came by but Jared was too tired for school or a visit. He later felt like getting up for his daily bath. After his bath, I changed Jared's dressing all by myself with no one watching. (Still not my favorite thing to do.) Jared then walked five laps around the nurses station. He started feeling bad again and throwing up. The nurse game him something for nausea and so far that has worked. During the evening, we talked with Rhonda, William and Adam again.
It is now 11:40 and time for bed. The nurse just came in to get Jared set up for the night.
* Lord, help!!! Please watch over Jared. I pray that tomorrow will be a good day for him. I pray that you'll keep him safe. Lord, I pray for Adam. Please touch him. Please give us wisdom to make right choices. Have your way. In Jesus Name.
Larry is now off the ventilator and doing better. Lord, please continue to touch him. In Jesus Name. Amen.
