It's Sunday morning and last night I started to feel the energy returning. Steroids are amazing although fraught with danger. I didn't sleep as well but this morning my throat is less sore and swallowing is easier. Yesterday I wasn't able to treat the thrush with liquid Nystatin as it irritated my throat when swallowed but my family doctor put me on Fluconazole (a systemic anti-fungal pill) .
I seem to feel OK if I am doing the best I can given the limitations of the situation. I do identify very strongly with the character Orr who was Yossarian's tent-mate in the movie "Catch-22". Nobody wanted to fly with Orr because he crash landed on every bombing mission. But, there was a reason for this; he was practicing crash landings! If you don't know why then it's really worth watching a great movie.
