Phil has been eating about 1/2 cup of food a day and taking in about two cups of liquid. He occasionally has a little bowel movement that is liquid. He is alert and orientated. He sometimes gets things more confused than usual. He is taking morphine long acting two times a day and short acting at least once a day. His stomach does get upset and we give him meds for that every day. He has vomited 3 times since we came home but nothing in the past week. He is comfortable and depending how much morphine he has had decides his talkativeness.
He is getting weaker but continues to plug along and has been enjoying his visitors. He is amazing. Phil's brother will be coming home from Kosovo on Monday and I am sure that Phil will be around to visit with him.
