A little let down after a good day


Today was kind of a let down after yesterday being so good. The day started out really well but we did some backsliding.

Harriette Buckman came to see Jim today. She was there in the morning while Jim was still wide awake. He enjoyed her visit and it was good to visit with Harriette and catch up on all of the news. Thanks Harriette. You brightened Jim's day.

Letter in the day we had pick line troubles. Jim's pick site is infected. This seems to happen about every 6 weeks. They have removed the old line and placed a new one in the other arm. We hope this is the reason for his fever. They also sent cultures out on every other thing they could think of. They just are being cautious.

Before Jim could have anything to eat or drink that is all he wanted. Now . . . he can have some of these things and he doesn't want them. He loves the yogart so he eats all they will give him. He likes the fruit juices, water and milk but does not care for anything else. I can't blame him it looks awful. Pureed meat is not pleasant to look at.

He spend most of the day sleeping but that is OK because he heals faster when he sleeps.

This layout was part of my digtal class this week. I can't believe I actually did this. What fun.
