Ralph is on day +4 which is when they expect you to bottom out. I guess they know, because it took Ralph the best part of an hour to sign in he kept falling asleep. He asked if I would write to let you all know that things continue to go as expected. He is in and out of sleep and is unsteady on his feet. He still is able to get up and sit in a chair or go to the bathroom but hasn't walked in two days (laps). He is getting anti nausea drugs and anti rejection drugs. The latter make him very shaky so simple eye hand tasks take longer. I am staying with Ken and Louise and when I get home I am able to decompress from the day, talking to them and sometimes watching T.V. This and a good night sleep seems to keep me from getting to stressed. I am knitting and reading and making Christmas gifts while I watch Ralph sleep. Oh ya, I also play games of spider solitaire and regular solitaire. We are good and God continues to bless us with his presence and the meeting of our needs.
Thank you for your prayers and your friendships. We trust God to continue taking us through this valley and to walk with us as we continue to work towards healthiness.

ReplyDeleteGood job, Sharen - - I knew you could do it! It was a relief to see a posting. Thanks for the update. It makes it easier to pray. I suppose "as expected" is a good thing. We KNOW Ralph's Great Physician wants only the best for him and for you. Give Ralph a hug from me and know that you're being prayed for over and over and over again. Love, Ann
