Not Again

Wavey was sick AGAIN over the weekend.  This was the fourth cycle of the same stomach bug.  Her doctor prescribed an anti-nausea medication to give her gut a rest.  Hopefully her body can heal, so she can get her strength back and get over this already.  She has missed almost every day of school since we returned from the Christmas break.  Her weight is down by about 5 pounds and she looks very pale.  Thankfully my mom came down for the long weekend to help out.  Matt is working the next 10 days straight, so it was nice to have her help.

She is having a lot of trouble walking at the moment.  Her hip and hamstring are incredibly tight and she is falling a lot.  She is with the PT right now for some stretching and evaluation.  We meet with the physical medicine doctor at the end of the month.  I hate seeing her body deteriorate like this.

Oliver is doing well.  He hasn't gotten sick since the one time he had it a few weeks ago.  I have been working with him on learning how to drink from a straw.  It sounds like an easy task, by for my stubborn little Oliver it is quite the ordeal.
