Day's stress started early when a guy from Comcast showed up to replace the cable box we thought broken, then told us the problem was the TV it was connected to, meaning we'd need to get another one. So when my sister arrived and after she calmed us down enough we could get through the bills, off we went to Best Buy to choose between a number of similar looking TVs. Mom also got a new wireless battery-powered keyboard where lights up when on. The new TV is much bigger than the old one, requiring much rearranging of equipment and the putting of at least one item(the old record player which we never did use much, because we got it just as records were going out of use)up in the attic. Another thing mom ended up getting today was her own Pandora account, and between the two of us, I think my sister and I actually managed to get her to understand how the service works.
Dad was in bed for most of the day. My sister got him to drink some extra fluids, which he then blamed when later he threw up, though it was more likely a result of the chemo. He's starting to show signs of malnutrition, and we're still groping for a way to get him to eat.
