Here he is, watching Tiger Woods and playing solitaire! Yesterday was uneventful. I went back to the farm last night and this morn to pick and freeze vegis. I brought back a sampling of vegis for Dr Callander (who had expressed interest in "the tyranny of beans" needing to be picked every two days), as well as many ripe melons for the nurses. It's not clear if Gil will be allowed any peeled and then cut up melon, because it appears he is starting gastro intestinal side effects.
We know that this particular "dark night" is necessary to cross through before he's released, but the stories have been a little intimidating. The doc said that perhaps his having had chemo and radiation before might mean his system would be thrown for less of a loop. Time will tell.
He's been feeling tired today which makes me hope that sleep might be one of his side effects. Wouldn't that be nice!! Friday night he'd had a bad restless leg attack which had cut his sleep down to under 4 hours. It seems only fair that he get a little sleep aid with everything else.
We're both going to bed a little earlier tonight.
