Kevin is doing much better - better than he has in weeks, truth be told. He got up and walked around a lot today and he didn't need any pain meds until 5pm - that in itself is miraculous! He doesn't seem to be as dizzy and he was barely nauseous today so that was pretty wonderful too. I am thinking that maybe the acupuncture combined with the two new meds he's on (one for the vertigo and one that has been found to help with PTSD) may just have done the trick. We'll see...I so hope he's just as good (or even better) tomorrow. I would really like to get him over to the FH for a bit.
And tomorrow I have to go early in the morning to get the keys to the apartment. It's times like this that I wish I had help. It's going to be really rough having to carry everything from the car up to the apartment myself. Thank goodness there's an elevator, but it's still going to be a lot of work - many, many trips over the next week. I have to go shopping every night after leaving the hospital too to buy everything we need. Have I ever told you that I absolutely HATE shopping? Kevin loves it, but I despise it. I sure wish he could do that part of it, lol.
Oh well, it's necessary and there's no sense whining about it, I guess. And I have to admit to looking forward to being in one place for a long while - I just wish it could have been where my parents are. They are discussing coming for a visit once dad feels well enough and gets through another round of chemo. It'll be a little while for sure though...

That is good news! I would do the shopping for you (even though I too despise shopping), and the carrying from your car and lugging up stairs, except I am rather far away and tethered to three small ones myself. I can't wait for you to be settled in so that you can breathe. Silly, isn't it?

Yahoo, progress!
So sorry you've got to be away from your folks at this time. Hope they can visit Texas in the future. Hang tough and best in getting settled into your new/temporary place.
