Treatment number two

Morgan started her treatment yesterday at 3:00 pm. She will have a five hour treatment everyday until Saturday. On Sunday she will recieve fluids to help flush her kidneys. She has had a good day. She has stayed in bed most of the time except for an hour this afternoon when she went to the Child Life room and played board games. She has kept her food down today and that is truly a blessing. I am restricting her diet to help her keep things down. Some of the medicines cause her to have cravings for greasy foods that she knows she will not be able to keep down. We don't always agree on the foods, but in the end Morgan knows that it is important for her to receive nutrition.
Last Friday morning Morgan lost her hair----again. It had been shedding for a couple of days but on Friday it was completely dead. I ran my fingers through it and within 5 min. she was bald. This was understandably very upsetting to her. No fourteen year old girl wants to be without her hair. But, like the trooper that she is, after she showered and got dressed she put on her wig and wore it the entire day. She even went to babysit for three hours. The wig looks fantastic on her. The color is a bit redder than she would like but it still looks great.
If all goes according to the current plan, she should get to go home on Sunday. Thanks for all your prayers....and thanks for reading this blog. love, Reena
