Exhaustion

Andrea had a rough night and morning. She experienced nausea quite bad and was very exhausted. She sounded pretty down this morning but the nurse gave her an injection to help with the nausea and she slept and rested most of the day and went to bed by 8.00pm. Connie and Nana made some chicken noodle soup for Andrea and delivered it through the nurses at the ward. She enjoyed that compared to what the hospital served her and was able to keep it down.
The hospital food is not that good and often bizarre (for example: 3 jelly donuts for dinner). So we are delivering home cooked meals and fresh salads and fruit when ever we can.
We are praying that the nausea will pass and that she will be able to sleep well.

We have printed out the emails that have been sent to her and have delivered them to her. She has been encouraged and has really enjoyed reading them. Thank you! She also enjoyed listening to recorded greetings and well-wishes from many of her classmates and other kids at school...thank you Mr Maddocks and friends!

It is so hard to not be there to help her. We are stripped of all possibilities of helping her physically, and are left to pray. So we will pray.

It must be so hard for you to be separated from Andrea at this time. We are praying for you all so much....
