Small Steps

October 6, 2018 by Helena Trent Leave a Comment

Thank you all for your suggestions on nausea! I am happy to report I have not vomited since that one time and I have eaten a couple of small meals. I still feel nauseous and dizzy sometimes, but as long as I keep my food down, I am a happy camper!

Pat brought over (along with dinner and other goodies) these Sea Band wrist bands. They work on pressure points on both wrists to control the nausea. Really works! That with some ginger tea and some really boring bland food makes the world so much brighter! 🙂

After spending two days in bed, I was upright for a bit here and there today. Feels good to be out of bed even though I can only shovel my feet around very slowly. I was going to try a tai chi set, but it took too much effort even to think about it. Maybe tomorrow.

Pat brought over Sea Band, ginger, and food, Katalin brought me alkaline water, then 3 angel friends showed up this afternoon with vacuum and mop. They made my house sparkling clean!!  Wow, the house finally has some resemblance of life rather than looking like a tornado disaster zone!! (yes, I know we have been hit with a disaster, and little things like cleaning is way down the priority list.) Brett said, let’s sell the house now, it will never be this clean again! lol!

I am so blessed by you all! I can’t thank all the friend enough both close by and far away to send me well wishes, love, and words of encouragement. I love you all so much!
