Another day - Another count - Last Count??

Adele is absolutely exhausted today. With her body drained of most of her small amount of energy yesterday and a poor night of sleep, she is drained and now laying down in IPOP. She took sleeping pills, but they did not work very well. I was up at 4 AM and not able to get back to sleep either (she was making the bed move way too much). This morning we got to the 7:30 IPOP appointment and find we might need to be here for another day or so? We decided last night (over a very strong argument from me - I want to go home!) that it would be best to delay going home and get a day of rest here. But now we might be held back by liver counts anyway. They (the liver counts) still were high yesterday, and if they continue that way, IPOP might want us to stay longer.

Rambling on - trying to put a positive spin on this - just too tired to think straight. Will need to get home sometime - just will not be today.

Pray for strength and ability to get the much needed rest. As always include praise and thanksgiving to God for allowing us to get this treatment and all the ways He has helped us to get to this point. I know He has been with us every step of the way. Thank You for all You have provided Lord! We Love You!

As always - more later when counts are in and after sleep has rested us more.

Rick

  1. I'll be praying for rest...have Adele give me a call sometime when it's convenient for her. Blessings to you both - Beth
