Today was mostly a sleeping and nausea day again despite the fact that I managed to convince Robert and the doctor into giving him third anti-nausea medication. :( It makes hanging out at the hospital kind of lonely when he sleeps most of the day, but I would much rather him sleep then feel bad while he's awake and I have tons of things I brought to watch or do "While he was sleeping".
He's also had congestion in the morning and an occasional productive cough. They swabbed him for some typical viruses and did a chest x-ray, but they were both clear. He must have something they are not testing for. So far it's not too bad though, so that's good news.
During his up time we went on one of our walks, which means for him being fully covered in an large smock and mask. Today we had to move over to keep from getting run over by whatever the equivalent is of a floor Zamboni. I wonder what the job description for that job looks like. Must be able to drive safely in hallways without hitting patients or gurneys.
Robert did have a few other times (less than 30 minutes each) today when he felt good enough to watch part of a movie or play with Legos (Adam and Amanda's Darth Vader gift). I think the downside to the Lego playing was that if one of the small pieces would roll off the dinner cart to the floor we had to go searching so the cleaning lady wouldn't sweep it up and Darth wouldn't be missing something important, like say a hand.
