The last couple of days have gone well. The swelling in Cheryl's feet and legs has come down considerably. Her energy is increasing and she is getting around much better than when she first came home.
Cheryl's appetite is back to normal. She is eating three regular meals and drinking Ensure as a supplement. I was real pleased to find that she is not wanting her pain medicine nearly as frequently as before and is now considering what to take to bring down a slight fever.
I'm sure that getting back into a normal routine is contributing to her recovery. The house isn't too much of a wreck and I've been staying on top of the laundry so it doesn't pile up around us.
Cheryl is up to short visits and phone calls. If she is tired and doesn't feel like visiting, she will let you know. If you call and it goes to voice mail we'll try to call you back as soon as possible.
I appreciate Cindy Allen coming by yesterday afternoon so I could go into to town to take care of a few things and go to prayer meeting at church.
I am glad to hear about the increased appetite and progressing recovery. Cheryl, you look good! You are in the best hands possible--Juds's and the Lord's. Continue to recover and I hope to visit soon.
ReplyDeleteOh such good news. I would love to visit and will call in the next day or so to see when you are up to it. You are doing great Cheryl, keep healing and we keep praying too! Love Ya!
ReplyDeleteI thought you'd feel better at home. :) Nathan arrived from Iraq last night. He sends his love to both of you. So glad you have such wonderful friends to help you!!
ReplyDeleteLove, Cindy M.
It's nice to see pictures posted. It was fun visiting with you but I'm afraid I probably got you tired out. I hope you are sleeping well. Actually, your house looked pretty spotless. Somebody's doing a good job around there. Love you and continually praying for you.
ReplyDeleteCheryl, I am so glad you are finally home, I know you are! It sounds like you are progressing nicely and that Jud is taking really good care of you. You are continually in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteJud and Cheryl,
ReplyDeleteBecky and I have been praying and thinking of you daily. So glad that you are home and we hope that each day will bring you more strength and healing. Jud, thanks so much for keeping us posted daily.
Janice and Becky
I'm so glad to read that things are going better at home. I hope they continue to get better, that the chemo works and that it doesn't upset things too much.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that Aunt Cheryl is getting her strength back. She is a strong person with a positive attitude and I am thankful to have her as my Aunt. Uncle Jud stay strong in the Lord it is HE who gives us strength! I love you guys dearly and I and our church are praying for you daily. Please tell Aunt Cheryl that I love her with a BIG but gentle hug.
ReplyDeleteLove...Rebecca
