Doug is really trying to rest more. He does get pain relief while sitting or laying down, so at least the pain is not constant. But he still hurts a lot when up doing things. We have an appointment in Sept to see the Myeloma specialist in Denver; maybe he will have something to suggest.
I had a root canal done yesterday; had a fractured molar that was really giving me pain. Last night
I slept through the night for the first time in weeks. We had to go to an endodontist in Colorado Springs; Doug drove and did well - he got to sit while driving two hours each way and in the dentist waiting room for 2.5 hours.
We continue to unpack boxes and hang pictures at a snail's pace. That's okay - we keep busy between rest periods.
I am slowly getting over my caregiver slump. Being out of pain helps a lot. Tues at Bible study I got all weepy and had to leave. Today four girlfriends called to see how I am doing, plus a friend from Nebraska emailed. I know I have said it before, but we are blessed to have wonderful friends.
Love to all.
