Day 243

A mix up…literally
After getting out of the hospital one of the prescriptions Sarah was given was for a liquid pain reliever. She has had such a problem with regular pain pills and nausea we were desperate for another option. Our local pharmacy didn’t have the liquid ingredients to mix up so they just gave us the pills as the replacement. I have since had to chase down the liquid version. We asked SCCA and they gave us a new prescription and filled it at their pharmacy. Tonight is the first night Sarah is taking this liquid version since she has gotten out of the hospital and we are hoping it gives her a little extra relief.

Sarah has had a week off of radiation so far and already her skin has improved by leaps and bounds. Every day when I get home from work I am amazed to see the progress. 70-80% of her skin is starting to look like normal skin again. Hopefully Sarah’s skin will almost completely heal by Monday making it a little easier for her to continue her final treatments.

Thank you for praying. Thank you for caring. Thank you for being there for both myself and my wife. I am so grateful to have a support system that stretches so far.
