What goes up must go down
A follow up on yesterdays’ Lord of Pain
That fathers’ secondary liver cancer is taking him down is a fact. Yet the way down is not a straight line. His cancer moves more like waves:
- yesterday father was visiting people
- today father was in bed and seemed to be in pain
Seemed to be in pain
Maybe the pain and exhaustion came as a consequence of the good moments we had yesterday?
Tomorrow will be another metastatic liver cancer day to find out if father needs a higher dose of morphine in his pain treatment.
Father lived through the world war so expressing pain in words is kind of foreign to him. Which makes cancer treatment a difficult call when it comes to his pain management.
