2 days down

So far so good. Dave is doing really well. He has had a little nausea. He woke up last night around midnight and I gave him some medicine and he slept well for the rest of the night. He is trying to eat several small meals throughout the day. This will be a tough job for me making sure he eats enough. You know how some people eat for enjoyment, well Dave eats to live. I love to read cookbooks, look at recipe cites on the Internet, cook food, think about food, and especially eat good food. Dave just eats because he has to. So my mission is to keep him from losing weight. We went to the Super Target yesterday while he was hungry so he picked out lots of good food he will eat. I had to take two classes on CVC care.I took them both today. Tomorrow I have to demonstrate that I can do the heparin flush, change the cap, and change his bandage. So that is what we have been up to. We hope to have a more permanent address in the next few days. Just one day now until our rug rats arrive. That will surely liven up this hotel. For those of you with little ones who watch "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" on Disney, as you can just imagine, that is what my kids think this will be like. Thanks to all of you who are praying without ceasing.

Lisa, I've been reading your blogs & I've been touched by them. My nephew is Andrew Nunnelley. I had chemo for breast cancer & I took Zofran before my treatments that helped me to be able to eat. I ate alot of applesauce. I'm praying for Dave & you all. Sincerely, Patsy Boulie

You both have been on my mind a lot. I drive by your street on my way to Jacksonville a couple times a week and it reminds me of you then too. I am glad things went well with the first treatment. Praying for you and looking forward to hearing about your reunion with the rugrats.
Love you!
