One tough infection

Tomorrow will be a week since dad was released from the hospital for this infection.  It's not been an easy week...for anyone. Dad still has the drain in his side to continue to clean out the abscess. He's on 2 antibiotics to kill the nasty bugs too. Problem is, dad has no appetite.  He's still very weak and has very little energy. Is this an effect of the drugs? The infection?  Or dare i it say....the cancer. I'm not sure.

Mom is the best caregiver.....ever. Anything he has a taste for, she makes. She flushes the drain, changes the dressing,  and stays on top of his meds.  She's there.

Prayer warriors,  please keep both my parents close to your hearts in prayer. Much love to all.......Jen

  1. Praying for you all, Jen. Please add my dear brother Greg to your prayer list. He has been diagnosed with colon and liver cancer. When will this stop? I hope and pray soon. Love to all, CJ
