Feb. 13

Sunday started off slowly for us. We were up for her to take her medicines around 9:30 and back to bed we went until around 1 pm when a darn IV buzzer woke us up.

But, the oncologist came in around 1:30 to give us and update and see how she was. He started another medicine to lower the PH in her kidneys which will then slow the formation of blood in her brain. He's hoping it might help lower the swelling in her brain a bit and prevent the neurologist from doing a spinal tap tomorrow. Megan sure doesn't want that!! So, we'll see how it goes... We asked about the problem with her right eye and he said that a nerve was injured during the surgery and so now she has Horner's Syndrome. They are hopefull that it will go away after some time, but for now her right eye is droopy, watery and the pupil is smaller. Her vision is still blurry and double a lot of the time, but closing the right eye does seem to help some.

This afternoon we had Grandpa and Vera and Grandma and Kelsey come. We also had a visitor from a little therapy dog named Sunshine. Megan was so excited to see her. She was the cutest little dog that kinda looked like a black poodle, but it was something rare and we can't remember the name. She did some tricks and Megan got to pet her for awhile. Hopefully another dog will be by tomorrow to say hi. :)

Kelsey stayed and hung out with us this afternoon and evening. And boy were they back to normal -- bickering and complaining back and forth. UGH! Kelsey and I are going home for the night and I will be back up at 8 am. I need to get some things from home, and hang with Kelsey and the dogs, so Dad is staying tonight since he is off work tonight. His turn for the fun filled couch to sleep on! lol
