. Skipped yesterday, Day 7 Whiny Day. White blood cells have not kicked in. Mouthsores have closed enough up up my throat so i can’t get fluids or solids down. Going without drinking or eating for 3 days is beginning to wear on me. Before all this I had all the energy ...

Well, I can’t swallow anything! Throat is very swollen and pretty painful but Dilaudid helps a lot. Energy levels low but not so bad that I can’t go walking down the hospital hallways and stirring up some trouble! I threaten to break out all the time, IV pole a ...

Better this morning . Slept ok for being awakened 4 times for vitals. Nausea is gone and I’m getting my chocolate boost before they start. Mouth is sore but tolerable.
