Day 57 - April 11, 2007 Wednesday

When Lynn arrived this morning, Terry was again feeling very bad. He was in pain, nauseous, and tired. He did not want to go to PT. Lynn had to force him to go. He was not happy with her for doing that. He had three therapists working on him at once - one on the left arm, one on the right leg, and one on the left leg. They would stretch and bend his arm and legs until he was uncomfortable. Terry would wince in pain but he was taking it well - joking, etc. They continued to work him hard knowing that it was helping him. He felt better after all of the PT was over (good thing Lynn made him go). The stretching and moving is good for him. He doesn't have much of an appetite (or drink much). They keep trying different things, but nothing seems to be working. Terry's isolation has been lifted now - don't have to worry about passing something to someone with low immune system. He also might get a roommate. He ended up getting a roommate later on that day. His name is Brandon. Terry and Lynn spent rest of the evening chatting about the next few days. They had no idea what to expect but they were trying to be open to the next adventure.
