Well, we got the heck out of Dodge this afternoon, and Annie is sound asleep in her OWN bed tonight. She isn't doing handstands yet, and is very weak after being in the hospital for 11 days, not counting the 3 right after Thanksgiving. So, it'll take her awhile to really be on top of her game. I'm exhausted, but very happy to be home again.
The docs think that it was probably a need for more hydrocortisone that was causing the nausea. Her dose has been increased significantly, and we'll just go with that for awhile to see how it works. She hasn't thrown up since Sunday night, but she's been a little nauseated in the evenings since then. If she starts spiraling down, we'll, of course, troop back to Children's where we know every nurse, doctor, therapist, security guard, Tully's barista...it's pathetic when people come back to work and say, "You're Still Here??" Pretty soon we'll have our own parking space.
Thanks for keeping us in your prayers. Annie needs to regain her strength, as well as continue to keep her food INside her tummy.
