So Monday through Thursday the doctor let Alison walk outside. We walked around the LDS hospital complex about 4-5 times each day. It's in the avenue's of Salt lake so it's uphill or downhill. At one point I thought man can I keep up with this women!! :). Anyway grateful she still has the strength to walk around. It crazy what we take for granted in our lives.
This is Alison below eating bacon!! Keeping food down is becoming harder and harder. We love Salt lake for all the great places to eat but watching her throw up spaghetti today was hard for the both of us. Luckily she has a husband who is happy to eat all the leftovers.
Prayer is important to us. At this point in the process the only thing that is for certain is our belief in God and our ability to improve our ability to care for our family and everyone around us. We have been uplifted by patients that are leaving successfully and patients who are staying positive while here. This sweet little old lady was next to me walking the other day and I asked her, " How are you?" and she said, "Come on, I'll race ya!" It's humble to see people who have to face the most difficult circumstances cheerfully. I am thankful for the fight my wife has. She doesn't let the fear of the unknown keep her from taking one step at a time. We just hope she throws up less and continues to move through this the best she can. Desi
