SATURDAY 25 MAY
Celebrate the little things, thus has been the advice from my Friend for the last few weeks. Here are some little things:
- swallowing has become smooth, for at least three weeks now, and after several weeks of choking or almost choking daily.
- I was retaining my water for four and five hours at a time, after ten years of an urgent need to pee whenever I even thought about it. What freedom! Then it went away two days ago, but I have hope that it will return.
- limpness of muscles, especially the legs; I’ve experienced this before but never to such a degree. This is a recovery symptom so I try to view it gracefully.
- snap jaw gone; this is wonderful.
- sharp pains in feet have gone from several times an hour to once or twice a day. This is also wonderful.
- on the other end, Sunday and I can hardly move – uncomfortable and annoying.
Typing is still difficult and my time at the computer has been taken up with other things, so these reports continue to be rare. Thanks for reading. Your support means a lot to me. Onward!
