Friday
Not doing well today. Dad's legs are very much weaker, especially the right which is paralised with foot drop. They are suddenly becoming quite swollen. His right hand is playing up and not well behaved today. This morning he was really slow and needed help with everything all day, he is not able to walk without complete assistance. Yesterday he could barely manage with the wheely walker.
I don't think he could hear a word I said today (squeaky voice for 3rd day) and did not seem to understand much of new discussions, but he knew we were up at radiotherapy and that we needed to buy biscuits. He's been very tired, quiet and slept all day, mostly on the lounge.
This could be partly because of the side effects of radiotherapy, though he was very bright last night (seemed like he'd gained a week).
People say there are good days and bad days.
We are very blessed, and thank God for all the time we are together.
