I told myself early on that I should be anchored- don't go up and down with good days and bad. That is hard to stick to. John is better today. The home nurse said he might be allergic to the sulfa drug, based on his symptoms. John is getting more fluids (through the feeding tube) He's finally had more good hours in a row than bad I come here to this topic on DU because I can get support and I don't have to worry about who I'm sharing with I'm glad I found this spot
