Stitches and Stuff.

Chloe's been doing pretty well with her chemos so far. She actually ate better yesterday which was nice for a change. The anti-nausia seems to be working, she just feels lousy. Sounds like it may get worse as the week goes on. She has to get up every 2 hrs to pee so they can make sure her kidneys work. Kind of makes me uncomfortable knowing they have to track her urine output to make sure her kidneys aren't failing.

She's been a good performer so far though -just had stage fright a couple of times. They didn't tell me that they had to do this, so i was a little confused yesterday. We had this nurse named Sarvar from Russia, or somewhere. She is nice but she kept coming in, pointing at Chlo and she'd say "She hauss to pee!" So the first time i just took her in the bathroom thinking maybe Chloe was indicating to her that she had to go. But a little later she just pokes her head in the door, points at Chlo and say "She has to Pee!"
So i said, "well, she just went a mintue ago."
But I was cut short with "No, she has to go pee now!" I thought maybe she was phsycic or something, because Chloe did in fact have to pee once i got her up. But after several more times of demanding she pee, i asked the other nurse what was up and got the scoop.

Her pic-line almost came out last night when her stitches broke, she didn't like that a great deal. They ran us down for an xray and we were in and out with some snoopy sitckers in 5 minutes, it was amazing. Luckily they can still use the pic-line, the dressing changes are just more painful for her because they have to press on the line to keep it in place. The nurse felt really bad because it happened while she was changing her dressing, but she was being so gentle there was nothing she could have done to prevent it. One of the stiches had come out earlier in the week and Stacie is super careful too. The stitches just had issues i guess.

In other news, Elsie drew on the Ball's house. Luckily it was just sidewalk chalk, but sorry Justin and Callie. You're good, patient neighbors. Jones', you might want to lock up your chalks, markers, pencils, pens or any other writing utinsel or object that could be used as a writing utinsel. Or, maybe we can just teach Elsie about laws pertaining to destruction of property. I thought we were done with that after she drew on the outside of our house, and all over the basement walls a year or two ago. I guess she needs a refresher course.

Well, she has to pee. Later.
