So we completed tx yesterday,and he rang the bell formally signaling tx complete! Was wonderful to leave, some sadness leaving some of the other pts/ families behind. Promised to keep all in our prayers. So trying to get him started with good habits with his diet/ nutrition. While in patient PA told him it was ok if he couldn't get up to the 6 cans yet.. Wanted her to be a little tougher like the dietician was! I need to keep track of his intake closely as his recovery is the goal....made a informal intake log. Hoping he would buy into it knowing/ seeing the daily goals.....so far only me filling out....however, I successfully got 52 ounces water in him,he didn't feel like doing any of the feeding today because he felt bloated.(so I know I'll probably hear from some in disagreement), but while he was sleeping, I was able to sneak in 3 cans..... I feel I did pretty good . He didn't do that bad either. Up for short period on computer, took his shower and did some correspondences he needed to do...no growling ! he looked pretty good today. Tomorrow we start our hydration days so that will help too. Hoping this will get him over the hump and kick start his recovery.....can hardly believe this was day 1 -Recovery Phase !
