What happens when you just don't want to eat?

After 10 hours of blood transfusions Friday night and Saturday morning, Tim was exhausted.
Today the goal is to void, walk, and eat. They are counting his calories, keeping tack of his fluids intake and output.
He is voiding after the nurse came in and said they were going to cath him. He negotiated to drink more water and void into the container so they could measure it. The problems have been that he is not having any solid movement and his stomach is hurting. That makes food unappealing and he is not eating. The only really good news today is that his blood levels are up, 30 today. I got him some chocolate boost, the hospital only has strawberry ensure, this is a easy way to get some calories. Dr Dick came in and asked him how much he is walking and gave him some boxes to check off each time he walks, we have one left to go tonight then I will let him get some sleep. We had hoped things would be better today. He is not exhausted but moving, eating, breathing, it all hurts. He is 10 pounds heavier today than yesterday. Some of that is blood, the rest is fluid retention and any solids he has not passed. They are working on getting everything moving again, so if they are successful tonight he will be feeling much better tomorrow.
