Just to let you all know David is feeling a bit better.
Still hasn't been to the loo yet (no 2's) he is passing water and has been a bit squitty but as the GP said if not much is going in then not much is gonna come out. Too much detail, sorry move on quick.
He says he still fells full up and constipated, but the waves of pain have died down, not sure if that's due to increasing his steriods, or due to the laxotose. Anyway, whatever he is not in as much pain so that is a good thing.
He still isn't eating much, so far he has had 3 spoons of yogurt, 2 scoops of ice cream and a pot of Ambrosia rice pudding. Oh yeah and he just nicked a couple of my caramel nibbles.
He is drinking a couple of cups of tea, so that is a good sign too.
Still in bed, and I have been bribing the kids to take it in turns to sit / play upstairs, and also to be good while I am sitting upstairs with him.
He is starting to look better and not so pasty, fingers crossed as the kids want to go out next Tuesday with some friends and if he is still like this I won't want to leave him on his own, so we won't be able to go.
