Paul tried another milk, Glucerna yesterday with doctor's suggestions as they wanted to know if it's the nutrition or the small intestines which are causing abdominal pain whenever feeding starts. Feeds started at around 5pm and it was running at a very low speed but at 1am, paul started to feel the pain and after given 10ml of morphine, pain didn't really subside. He was given iv morphine by RMO(residence medical officer) at 3am and managed to control the pain for less than an hour. Requested for more morphine at 6am and 930am.

He could hardly sleep as the cramping pain was occurring on and off throughout the night. He's much better now and doctor suggested that he should try another nutrition which is fruit based instead of milk today when he's not having any pain.

He weighed himself when we went for a walk yesterday afternoon and had gained another 0.6kg. He managed to walk 3rounds. Doctor said it could be water retention as they have pumped him with lots of fluid since he was very dehydrated but doctor mentioned that it's not easy for anyone with the disease to be able to gain weight and it's good news. Praise God!
