March 18

I did very little all morning, really.  I didn’t even have my normal breakfast, just half a bottle of extra-protein Boost (which I finished later in the day).  But when we put the computer on the bed I actually did a bunch of things– catching up and recording some data that I couldn’t do until I had things set on this machine.

I still need to get back over to my desk and struggle with the cabling for the firewire disks, but there isn’t an immediate rush to get that finished.

I’m also feeling a little more awake now than I was before I started working on the computer, and that suggests to me that there is a component of depression in my general lack of desire to do anything.  Let’s see what happens tomorrow.  The scariest thing is how little I’m eating.  That’s not helping my energy level much either.

  1. Hi Mara,

    You might try eating smoother textured foods….puddings, pureed soups, yogurt, applesauce etc. If it goes down smoother and you don’t have to chew it you will be able to eat more, also try for abt 6 times a day, small amounts vs 3 meals a day. Senna is great for the constipation, it’s natural and gentle. Hope some of these help. Am thinking about you and keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
