Day Four

Quite a lot of progress today. Linda ate breakfast, lunch and dinner. Ok, ok, breakfast was half a bowl of cheerios, lunch was soup and dinner was soup, but we're celebrating anyway. Lots of force-fed Ensure in between as well. We cut way back on the nausea meds that were making her drowsy all the time. We also went outside and walked around the circle 3 times.

Breathing is still a chore for her. We were able to find a Pulse Oximeter like they have in the hospital that measures oxygen levels in your blood. I think that convinced her to take this deep breathing stuff more seriously, and by the end of the evening she was able to maintain 95%--not great, but better than it was earlier in the day.

So we're looking forward to tomorrow. Solid food, here we come!
