Feeling the Cytoxan

Katie's cell counts may still be really good at this time, but she is definately feeling the effects of the Cytoxan that has been pumped into her body. She took a little longer to get going this mornig and had a little less energy to sustain her until nap time. She did, however find enough energy to have some fun playing in the homemade tent pictured to the right. The tent is actually her art easel with the futon cover draped over it.

She has had a little nausia trouble, despite the Zofran that she had this morning and her appetite is suffering as a result. Food orders have been traditionally huge for a person of her size, but most of the food goes untouched. Luckily, she will drink when we push it so the Cytoxan should be flowing out of her body just like it is supposed to and not hanging around to damage her kidneys.
