The latest adventure for Faina has been that of eating real food. In the quiet of the night, and even sometimes with all the noise of the day, the tune of her intestines is abundantly audible. Last night, I got to listen to the melody of a somewhat benign biscuit working its way through the system.
I've been asking people, what would you do if you were in a new place, all foods were new to you, some were yummy and went down well and others made you violently ill? Would you find a few things that work and stick with them or experiment with new and different things? Faina is abundantly in the later category. No surprises there.
Yesterday, Faina got to turn around the bikur cholim (visiting the sick) obligation making a visit to a friend recovering from ACL surgery.
Fistula, after a period of silence, has resumed a low level of perkiness. We see Dr. Schulick next week for a scheduled appointment. We keep in contact with the oncologist, Dr. Koutrelakos, maintain a correspondence with a specialist at Sloan-Kettering, and keep networking with professionals in San Francisco and Haifa. Limbo, it's the new normal.
