“Toughing It Out”

(This update is a total steal from something Mom posted)

Matthew is toughing through the pain & nasty symptoms that accompany an immune system loss … without morphine, so far. They keep offering it like it’s free candy! The way he peers up at me with a precious smile as he pukes up bile into a bucket (sorry if TMI 😬) makes me tear up. I wonder if he knows he’s allowed to complain? 

Things picked up this afternoon & he was energetic enough that he was speed-walking the halls & swinging that IV pole so fast around the corners it was making me nervous 😳 & inspired one nurse to shout, “Whoa! Speed limit!”

All in all, a thankfully uneventful day!

Thank you, Lord!!!

And thank you praying friends 💗
