June 2nd, 2016

Mia started steroids on Monday and they are making her completely miserable. She received her last chemo yesterday and will remain inpatient until her counts recover. Her hair is falling out rapidly which is to be expected. Her NG feeds have been going well, but last night she threw up her feeds and the tube. We are planning on getting a new one in this morning so we can start her feeds up again.

A urine culture was also sent out last night because she's been complaining about pain when going and literally asks to be changed every 5 min. It was negative so we are assuming it's a combination of the steroids and virus still working its way out of her system. In general, she's just uncomfortable. Hoping she will be in the mood to play soon!
