Guest guest Posted December 27, 2002 Report Share Posted December 27, 2002 Correction I mean the soft protein not carbs the carbs are doing me in. I eat the carbs all the time. I also realized something else it just hit me my grandma is starting to suffer I think I am making myself suffer too just a thought and it makes since. I am making myself feel pain because she is in so much pain. I am not the sole primary caretaker my mom is but I do have to help not because I have to but because I want to. We didn't put her on hospice yet because we have a great team of nurses and they would only come once a week to adjust her pain meds. They are still treating her bed sore and her growth in the pubic region. She is also still getting PT and that would all stop as soon as we put her on Hospice. She is just not ready for that yet. My great Aunt Dorthy just left and we are all feeling sadness. She was a great comfort and encouragement to her. It was so awsome that her sister could spend my grandma's 88th birthday with her and Christmas. You all are recommending such great foods that I love to eat if it weren't for the fistula. I would much rather crunch on carrots and celerey but they hurt going down and seem to get stuck. I am going to try and start eating like I did when I had the hypoglycemia so bad. Eating ever 2-3 hrs and eating string cheese, peanut butter crackers, and lean lunch meats. I don't notice it so much because I am eating sugar all the time. I cannot even believe what I can eat and it doesn't make me dump. I wonder what it will take and how long until I can reset the dump o meter. Thanks again for the supprt and encouragement I thought I had hit bottom I have done it before and it does take hitting bottom for me to wake up and realize what's going on.
