Kinda Mellowdramatic...

Well, today was an off day....We went to Colin's 1015 appointment and it was so fast...he was in and out in less than half an hour, and they told us it would usually be faster than that, but today they had to take some pics of his initial state. He was feeling exhausted to begin with but as the day wore on, it only increased and he's been on morphine pretty steady since his treatment....he got sick only once so far, but he was in some pretty intense pain in his eyes. They told us that there would be some swelling around the brain initially, and that everything was going to get way worse, before it gets better....i pray it doesn't get any worse for his sake. Once we got into the groove with getting his nausea under control, and getting ahead of his pain, then he fell asleep and got a few good hours of rest, and now he's had a couple pieces of toast and he's sitting beside me on the couch. I pray we can get some rest tonite, and i just hope i can keep up on his symptoms, because we've learned the hard way along this journey that playing catch up with pain is an impossible thing. For now, we are just trying to be normal and watch some TV...he doesn't really watch, his eyes don't work too much for that right now, but he's just such a trooper!!! I can't believe how much he endures without an ounce of bitterness or complaint or anything else i would be doing if i was in his situation!!! IT's tough to watch, but way worse to be going through....my brain isn't working much for writing right now, just making sure Colin is ok, so i should go, but thank you for your prayers today.....it was a surprise to us that he would feel any different from just one treatment, and feeling worse he is, BUT PRAISE GOD THAT it is working, and making a difference and doing exactly what we've been told it will do....GOD is at work here, HE is using this to bring healing and relief to Colin...i pray it comes soon, so very soon!
I will update tomorrow from home, Colin's appointment is at noon and then we should be on the road headed home for the weekend....
Luv, Melissa
