Woke up feeling quite horrible this morning. I just knew I was sick. Went in to see Dr. Trillo. Fever of 100.1, but that’s it. Got a liter of fluids and IV antibiotic. Felt much better after that. Of course now we’re getting the PEG tube placed ASAP. Have to go back tomorrow morning for some more fluids and antibiotics. PEG tube placement is scheduled for Wednesday, the day after tomorrow. Got to miss radiation today because of these developments, so it’s getting tacked on to the end of my treatments. Yippee.
Did find something to drink that doesn’t hurt my throat, carbonated beverages, especially ones that aren’t too sweet – no thank you, Coke. So now I have something that I can drink that doesn’t hurt. Have to be cold which us just fine with me.
My sister is coming tomorrow to help out for a bit. I’m really looking forward to that, just having someone here who can help out that I don’t have to tiptoe around. *sigh*
