So its been one month since my beautiful man earnt his wings early... and to be honest ive been feeling ok considering. Its almost like i feel like im doing something wrong because i have been ok.. dont get me wrong im not runing along picking daisys but im not in bed crying my eyes out every single day... i do still have those days but i feel like i want to see life now.. if anything he taught me to stop moping around and start living. I feel so sad when i see his photo or soo very sad seeing our wedding pictures but then i can hear him say 'come on you'l be ok'..

Been a hard day and just feel like I need to scream! Withdrawal sucks sucks sucks! I've just gotta keep going..... I've already gotten off endone, dexamethasone, prednisone. Down to 5mg of oxycontin at night....... Had a fight with my hubby..... Sucks as we don't fight often! Through this while process we have been so supportive of each other. But today I let him down, I made a stupid decision that affects him too and I didn't even consider his needs! I'm disappointed in myself for being so selfish :'(

Its been a month or so since I last updated, Ben has had his follow up appointment with the oncologist & is now medication free. No sleeping tablets or dex. The doc advised no growth, which is awesome news but Ben has gone the complete opposite. About a week before the doctor appointment he started to sleep more, and be a bit dizzy. We mentioned this to the oncologist but he didn't seem to worry- just mentioned to me to watch for him acting strange, and drunk like. If that is to occur, he would have to have a shunt put in his brain.
