Day 4

Saturday March 14, 2009

Boy what a day. Jake's morphine was pushed up more once again. He was not doing so hot but, he slept all day which he needed. He did not get an upset tummy very much so that was some what of a relief. I layed by his side all day hoping things would make him feel somewhat better. I know as things progress on its going to get worse, but we know that everything will be okay. We just got to keep our heads held high and keep pushing on. His dad was able to run out and get him his new laptop. Pretty nice if I have to say, and he seemed to be entertained by that while I was at work. I unfortunately had to work at night from 5-10 so having to leave his side always breaks my heart. I had gotten a text from him at about 8 and said he was very sick, and that he had called his dad. Jim and Julie were here until I was able to get here after work. His stomach did become upset, and his morphine was raised very high. He was also having a hard time going to the bathroom so they gave him medicine to try to help, and that just made things worse. Throughout the night they kept him on a monitor since it was such a high dose of morphine, and ended up putting him on oxygen. I stayed by his side throughout the night never letting go. I hope he knows that I am here for him all that I can be, and being the strongest I am. We love you Jake!
