Started off pretty bad, as Husband just could not eat ANYTHING this morning. Subsisted on Ensure protein drink and a bit of water, and his meds, till about 3pm... at which time his gastric pains kicked in, so he had to eat something. Had rice porridge at 3pm, 5pm and again at 9.30pm!! And had oats porridge at 6pm. In between, had the Ensure too. So, I guess the day finished on a slightly better note than it started.
Had my bro and sis-in-law and the kids over for breakfast this morning. Peng and I did the breakfast prep, and the kids laid the table, made the toast and coffee, and did the washing up. Verra useful having grown up nieces and nephews to do the scut work :-). They went shopping after breakfast, and Peng went along with them. She was back by noon though, and soon after that two of my very good friends turned up - Rini and TT. We haven't met since Husband's birthday in June, so it was so good to be able to catch up with them. Ordered take-away North Indian food from Khaana Peena (Mont'Kiara Plaza), and just sat and yakked and ate too much! They were hoping to have the chance to say Hi to Husband, but he just wasn't up to it, so they had to make do with just me :-p.
This evening I had arranged to meet with some good friends for dinner at Souled Out - my favourite restaurant in Desa Sri Hartamas. It is "favourite" not just for its excellent food, but also because it is literally just across the road from where we live, so it is easy for me to get back home quickly in case of need. Was hoping Husband would be strong enough to join us, but he was not - so I went with Peng and we had Molly, Jon, Jodi and Koshu joining us. Efy and Sianny could not make it, as they could not get a cab from their place - which is not surprising given the heavy rain of earlier. Anyway, a good evening was had by all! Efy, Sianny, we will have to wait till you guys come back from Indonesia before we meet - so we shall see you NEXT YEAR :-D. Anyway, got back home by 9.30, just in time to give Husband his last round of rice porridge for the day, and dose him up on his meds. He is now sleeping.
Peng is going back home to SG tomorrow, and I am going to miss her, but her work (AND Tony!) are pulling her back to SG, and there is no fighting that double pull :-D.
Well folks, please please continue to keep Husband in your thoughts and prayers. He is still very weak, and he still has a lot of pain in his left arm. Please pray that the Neurontin will soon take effect and control the pain in his arm, so that he can start sitting up and moving around more, and gaining in strength!
Till next time, stay safe, stay HEALTHY!
