A few people have mentioned to us, they have been checking for updates, and there aren't any. I guess this is kind of a case of "no news is good news" kind of situation.
Overall, it;s kind of a holding pattern. Ken is still exhausted, nauseated... and losing a bit of weight here and there. No, he isn't wasting away, but right now is a time for maintenance. One thing no one ever thought to mention was... it's not that he can't or even won't eat... He just isn't awake long enough to eat what he should. He is drinking ensure when he can with meals, etc. But I swear, I may start sneaking up on him with a bottle or two while he sleeps, and put it down the tube. (Believe it or not, that has actually been highly encouraged.)
Ken's mom and dad and Uncle Larry have stopped over from Northern KY for a short visit. It's nice to see family... and they bring goodies when they visit! Jan & Chip bring us items from "home" that we just can't get here. Last time, it was goetta and soda. Vernor's ginger ale for me, and Barq's red cream soda for Ken. They brought general groceries then too... greatly appreciated. This time was more soda... Busken's coffee cake (Ken: you NEED to eat some!!!!)... and tomatoes from my dad's garden!!
I guess that's really it for now.
