I stopped by the grocery store today. I ended up in the candy aisle (weird that you would find ME there). I saw the Life Savor Candies and started crying. So stupid.
So many things that Mom can't fix. I was always looking for things that I could fix - ways I could provide comfort or ease the discomfort. Jacob always complained about how nauseous he felt when his line was flushed with heprin. Each week I always scrambled to pack hard candies that he could suck on, so he wouldn't feel so gaggy.
In December I had Starlight peppermints. I've bought Life Savors, Jolly Ranchers, or Ice Breaker Sours. Even if they didn't help much during the flush, it was something that I could bring or give. It usually made a nice little snack on the drive home.
