Day 192

Winter Weather is really starting to kick in. It's wet and chilly out there.

Tonight I was in charge of Emily and Adam as both their Mum and Grandma were out for the evening. The Children are very good really and went to bed as requested at the proper time. Emily has reached the stage in her life where she prefers to read books herself. Adam still likes a story read to him. Tonight his choice was Aliens like Underpants, which I had not come across before. Very funny it was to.

On the food front, I had some Spaghetti with liquidised Bolognaise Sauce. I am delighted to report I was able to eat this no problem. Spaghetti seems to be okay I guess because it is very thin and easily digestible. Not only that but I had a piece of cake and later a small chocolate bar. What I shall have to do is go back to sort of diet I was following when I left Hospital.

I weighed myself this morning and have lost a further 3 pounds. I now weigh some 3 stone plus less than when I went into Hospital. Bearing in mind that my GP said I could lose some more weight some weeks ago this is okay but I am starting to get a little nervous about being under weight. I should add that the current loss is most likely because of what I am not eating rather than anything more sinister.

I got an e mail from Joya telling me that she is talking to two Gastroenterologists to see if they will check to make sure eating difficulties are caused by scar tissue rather than anything else. She will let me know when this is likely to be.

I have often written about the importance of having something to aim for. My next one is looking forward to Christmas and New Year. Nothing is going to spoil that.
