Update from the Inside
I've been on 2L of oxygen since I got here. I can go for short walks without it (like to the bathroom) but that takes a lot of energy out of me. I'm on a massive cocktail of antibiotics--oral and IV. I was needing meds for pain at first, but I've gone nearly a whole day without needing anything like that.
My FEV1 is only 1.4L and my weight has dropped below 115. Not what I like to see happen. I look in the mirror and I see that my appearance matches how I feel--sick and worn out. Please don't worry about me though, I'm in relatively good spirits, and Brad is doing a great job of keeping me company.
I'll try to do better with the updates.
