yes i missed writing yesterdays blog, rachel had rehab in the morning which was not as good as she would have liked. following a bad nights sleep she was very lethargic and struggled with some of the execises that had went very well the day before. the stem cells arrived late to the hospital yesterday so it was after 5 pm when rachel got back to the room. i would normally write the blog on her return whilst she was asleep, but yesterday she did not sleep for the 5 hours lying on her back after the spinal injection so did not stay away long.
this morning she woke up very sore (as usual after a spinal injection) and a mild headache. she went down to do OT but was feeling worse by the minute and was scaring the nurses with how pale she was. looking like death warmed up we came back to the room and she had a shot in the bum for her headache and slept for a few hours. hopefully the afternoon is better for her.
After the injections any quick movements like laughing, coughing etc give her a sharpe pain up her back and into her head. so i am on strict instructions not to say anything funny or make her laugh (now this is hard because you know that i am a pretty funny bloke) so i will be in my shell today but ready to go tomorrow.
