Just a Popsicle!

I wasn't going to post a closing to today as I was simply too tired and too depressed to find something positive for the day.

Cheryl has has a tough time with the mouth pains today. Added to that was the lack of any energy from the fever. She just never was able to get that little spark today.

Until later this evening... Sean stopped in and that was a huge boost to her, having him to watch TV and just sit with her was very comforting for her. Comforting to all of us actually.

Then, her night nurse offered her a Popsicle. She's been very sensitive to cold food/drink from the chemo medicine but she took the offer. The cold ice seemed to really soothe her mouth and lips and cut some of the pain for a bit.

I saw a brief peek of a five-year old gal with nary a care in the World, sitting on the sidewalk enjoying that Popsicle!

So there, a good turn after all!

G'nite!
