Once again, Marlon starts going downhill the minute we walk in the door of the hospital.  We get to clinic after finger poke and he plugs in and zones out.  A few treatments today and by the time he was being de-accessed, he felt he could barely walk.  He was shivering and shaking and crying.  He kept saying he wants to give up.  The whole ride home he sat, not saying a word, staring straight ahead, not even listening to book.  He got to his chair, curled up for a while, and then started to emerge.  He wanted food.  He ate quite a bit.  His energy was low, both physically and emotionally.  He had been asking for tacos, and finally had them for supper.  That was really the highlight of his day.  Definitely not a great one.  I did go out for a walk in the afternoon but unfortunately, he did not witness the beautiful day other than the walk to and from the car.

And I think, how is it we are here…
