I haven't had much of an appetite for the past three weeks. In fact, for much of the time, the sight and smell of food turned my stomach. However, I managed to force it down because food and nutrition is really important when building new bone marrow. Plus, I wanted to avoid even thinking about a food tube- they're going to get the food in one way or another, so I opted for the easy way. Call me picky, but the thought of a milkshake going up my nose and down to my stomach wasn't appealing (unless I'm having a Kranks burger in Limerick after a lorry load of Guinness- but that's a different story for a different time 😊).
Anyway, my appetite is slowly starting to come back and I'm almost enjoying food again. Yesterday's dinner was macaroni cheese and I wolfed it down. Now if they could only stop the dinners looking like a bowl of dog puke, it might help even more......

Great stuff Trev, sounds like the body is well on its way back to normal ... When the urge for donkey's is back at ya you'll know you're there :) ... (Should I rephrase that a little?!) (In all seriousness I've been following the blog, you're an inspiration - well fecking done.)
ReplyDeleteGreat news Trev. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteForget Macaroni cheese, what you really need is a good Irish stew and a very large glass of the black stuff....... At this rate you will soon be running the London marathon. X
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear that you're improving & on track for going home Trevor. The meals will be much better there.No sure if Guinness will be on the menu just yet. Hang on in there.
