Jim's mouth got worse overnight, bloody. He's real difficult to understand because he can't talk very well. He's also bed-ridden because he's so weak. Probably because his white blood cells are so low. The doctors ordered physical therapy. PT gave us some exercises he can do. But he doesn't feel like doing much of anything. Sometimes I wonder.... knowing what we know now, if Jim really would have wanted to do this. I think he felt like he didn't really have a choice. I mean this is suppose to save his life,right? Well, if the doctors are right , he only has one more day of feeling absolutely miserable. Then his white blood cell count should start to come back. I've been staying with him night and day. I try not to leave the room too often. That diarea comes on so suddenly that it is urgent to get him to the comode. Plus, I don't remember if I mentioned this but they gave him lacex because he was retaining fluid. So, if you can imagine, staying on top of it is almost next to impossible. Please keep Jim in your prayers, we're going to need them.
