Carli had a rough day today with continuing nausea, achiness, and sore mouth. I went to work to give her some peace and quiet and kept tabs by phone. Tonight she is trying to eat a little dry cereal and some peanut butter. When I can't even entice her with ice cream or sherbet from the DariEtte you know it's bad! It is so frustrating for her mom, the nurse, not to be able to do anything to make her feel better.
The hardest thing is that she is already dreading the next treatment, and I can't say that I blame her. She didn't expect it to be this bad. This is like having a nightmare that won't let you wake up. She is getting encouragement from her friends, especially her sorority, so that helps a lot.
Kelsie came home from Camp Wanake all bubbly and tanned. What a great week they had with the 6th grade outdoor education folks. Tomorrow is her 18th birthday...where did the time go?
We covet your prayers for her to be more comfortable tomorrow...we need to celebrate a birthday!

Happy, Happy Birthday, Kelsie! How did THAT happen so fast?!? I hope you have a great party, in the midst of Carli's struggle. I know cake would cheer me up ... cake ALWAYS cheers me up! I'll be over! What time's the party? LOL!
