Amy, I am coping. Work is my "therapy." At least there I can control things!
Tom and I saw the GI doc this morning. He'll get his PEG tube on Friday, not a moment too soon. It hurts him to swallow his spit at this point. Also, today after his radiation, he was going to go upstairs to the MO department to get a fluid IV. They told him he could do that anytime--a good tip.
Thanks for the pantry list! There should be a place on this site for such things. It would be helpful to all of us.
