Today again I awoke with the worning sickness feeling again. Yes it felt like my nine months of pregnancy all over again. I wonder if there was something going on with my thyroid even then almost 8 years ago....
Oh well at least I am very familiar with this feeling... pretzels and toast maybe honey nut cheerios in my future (or not)... I took a really long really hot shower this morning and felt human again with all fresh clothes too. I am ready to move past this but my body isn't so one step forward one step back. I need to go slow and EVERYONE knows how much I just love to slow down. LOL Yes Even God.
So here I am - I tried a little chicken soup for lunch and gave up and went back to pretzels. My Angel sister Lori showed up and made us lasagna and cleaned out all the yucky stuff from the freezer and frig (I couldn't stomach it). Wow I have a new lease on life. Thanks for the egg burrito too - that tasted good and sat well too!
Sam surprised Josh with a special subway lunch at school. All in all he has been a trooper through this. I am not sure how much he really understands about my condition because you can't see radiation but we have just kept the door locked and he has respected that. He has grown up these past couple of weeks and that was important for him too. I think Sam has something planned for him also tonight to encourage him for all his support and working hard this week at school.
We had told him all along Saturday he can hug me again yet I read more and more stuff online that it still isn't safe for him to be around me. I am thinking Sam will need to explain fast short hugs but then stay away at least for 8 days and then only moderate contact for the next few weeks. I think Sam will try to come back into our room also after the 8th day. He is see how much I am still buzzing.
It is so hard to know what is truly safe for them. Although we do know my levels are diminishing according to the geiger counter; it is an older one and cannot say from where the source comes. I am scheduled for a full body scan Feb 8th - 2 weeks from taking the pills. I would know then if my neck is the only hot spot left (I pray!)
I pray my stomach would get better but again time will tell. So here I go waiting for the Lord's perfect will and timing again. I am giving up and going to nap as my body says it is time. See you all later!
1 Thessalonians 5:17-18 (New International Version)
pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. Amen
