I think the chemo Sheina got on Tuesday afternoon is starting to "kick her butt." Just like my IVIG infusions usually kick MY butt. I totally know the feeling. Chlls, aches, nausea, just being miserable. She is wanting to lay in bed this morning. Yesterday was a very good day for her - lots of appetite (thanks to the steroids I'm sure) and lots of yummy high protein real food snacks. She is on pain meds now along with anti-nausea meds. Sheina has always been the best-trained house girl. She NEVER had accidents. Now, she just doesn't seem to have the motivation to go outside. I am thankful for having a steam cleaner here - but it is a real struggle because my two rescue girls, Sarah and Bonnie, both 8 years old, just came from an environment where their mom had alzheimer's and never let them outside, so they pottied everywhere... I have been trying to retrain them and then this started, so they imitate. And of course Casey Anne is 13 and has her share of accidents... oh well, I figure this carpet was shot long ago (sigh). I would do anything for my baby girl and she will never get in trouble for pottying in the house. I went and got what we call here "Pretty Panties" - they are human baby disposable training pants in a size 2T - they have pretty little Care Bears on them! I make a big deal out of everybody getting their Pretty Panties on for the night. Half the time somebody manages to take their pretty panties OFF and... well, you know the rest. If she does not want to go outside today it's fine - supposed to be close to 100º again and she gets choked when she gets hot. Tomorrow it's supposed to cool off. If she is feeling better, I am planning on taking her for an outing to see the Duckies!!
