Day 2....... pm Chronicle

Have slept peacefully on and off throughout the day.....it's those long blinks that tun into an actually sleep and so  very quickly.

The Picc line / Ketamine. Drip is not uncomfortable and I have managed how to remove from power systems if I feel the need for a walk .It's slow and still somewhat  wonky but best to keep the moving going whilst I feel well enough to do so.

Have spent time with my pysio who has a lovely approach....it would be easy to mistake him for the psychologist.Had some time In morning and afternoon,used a contraption that was a bit like a bike but for your hands,Then onto the walking machine.With Ketamine infusing into my body the pain has become a much lower level.

My darling husband visited, after yesterday I think he was surprised I was not admitted to the pys ward.....It was so overwhelming when he had to leave and they hadn't even began the Ketamine Infusion.....

I actually think he has to physically un  clasp my hands that were like a set of tight bands keeping him right near to me.....where I needed him. Book Hoo not a nice sight and I'm sure so more of a challenge for him..........strength  ,  guidance and love to him through this journey!

Pain has been fairly consistently about a 5 so I'm feeling quite blessed to be in this position....with experts in their fields....and consistent key people to deliver the treatment, I feel privelaged for the opportunity.

Apologies for any random errors.....this Ketamine is making its self know when it comes to putting this together.

One last thing to share proprietary to again dozing back off to sleep......A pic of my hospital team tlnighg

F is for Food.......that you never expected to get in hospital.......
