I try to rest as much as Im able to. I had a bad reaction to compazine and was so restless and couldnt sleep. Had to go to the hospital for extra hydration yesterday. Today is better, I am getting help w/ the PEG feedings at the hospital and thru my visiting nurse.
My son helps me daily and I also wish to thank Margaret (Mhupe) and her family for helping to guide me thru this. She has given me a tremendous amount of support and help. She has been my invisible caregiver, really she has been a miracle!!!!
