What has become clear to me over the last few days is that the oral morphine and the milkshakes to not mix well in the system.
I have had to separate the intake of these two elements and it is the morphine intake that has lessened.
Of course I have been concerned that I will put myself into a position where I am vulnerable to being hit with some really bad pain, but things seem to be easing. It is better to keep down the food I am taking on board than worry about the pain too much, but conversely I can't be in too much pain or I can't eat.
Fortunately, I seem to be getting the shakes down and I don't think that I had any morphine at all yesterday (it was either that or a single dose).
So I will do without today and see where that takes me.
How one feels changes every day. The situation is very dynamic and it pays to realise that.
There is really no point in spending time wishing you could do more to help friends and constantly offering your service if when they do need help they don’t bloody ask! Why would you go to the trouble of a long walk and train journey when you could sit in comfort with a lance corporal with chocolate drop eyes. The Sherman tank is always ready and waiting to take the general out and about and as for the Chelsea match should you ever need Huffty taken Aladdin is at your service ……..although the air might be as blue as their kit. Please call next time you need a lift or you will be getting a major bollocking xx
ReplyDeleteBollocking duly accepted Lance Corporal.
ReplyDeleteI will ask next time.
To be honest I thought the train wouldn't have been too bad because I knew that I would only have to do it one way, but I wish I had thought of Aladdin because I knew this afternoon would be quite a hard task.
I wil remember next time. This weekend has been a bit of a whirlwind.
