Hi all,
I'm feeling very anxious today as Mum was discharged from first round of chemo yday eve & it's my first day of caring for her in my home, but she was sick this morning and just wanting to sleep today. Am worried as her meds came back up (called helpline & they said not to re-administer the strong pain killers). She has kept down another anti-sickness tablet but has not wanted to eat a thing. I know I should just let her sleep, but the thought of her not eating & looking so ill is making me worried. She is very pale & temperature was a little high, but ok now. She is Day 6 from chemo so all to be expected I guess. Hopefully she'll accept some food & more meds later, I guess I just need to keep trying... Any tips would be much appreciated though - thank you.
