Well today seems to be a little better than yesterday. I think the cold I caught a couple weeks ago is starting to end. Don't have the nasal congestion, and have been coughing up less. Today I did worked on stacking some wood in our basement, that my inlaws were kind enough to drop off, hopefully will stop the furnace from running as much. Took my mind off things for a bit, and actually worked up a sweat. So been putting a lot of Gatorade through my peg tube to stay extra hydrated. Today I even tried some Rootbeer that had gone flat, and was able to drink it by mouth probably only had 4 ozs--but even that feels like an accomplishment. The progress over the past few days is encouraging. Hoping I will be in much better shape by the time I have to go to my follow up appointment with Dana Farber on April 15th.
