As the title implies, Katie spent most of her day on the couch. If she wasn't on the couch, she was in bed. She took at least four naps today and she never walked once. She did not have enough energy to pick her head up most of the time. Arguing made her tired so we didn't even get many tantrums.
Tylenol was our friend today. She complained of leg pains whenever a dose of Tylenol wore off. The leg pains are caused by the vincristine and there is nothing we can do about them except give her some pain reliever if the pain gets to be too bad.
We are also dealing with constipation again. She doesn't seem to feel that it is a problem yet, but we keep her on a regular regiment of laxatives to keep things flowing and for two days now, nothing is flowing. We even gave her a stronger laxative today that should have worked within six hours and we got nothing. Hopefully, that won't become a problem for her.
We will let you know how things go again tomorrow.
