Today was Serenity’s last day of steroids this month. I’m very happy for her. I swear, I can see her face getting puffier by the hour.
In addition to being extremely moody and eating around the clock, her feet are very, very dry and scaly.
She tugs on her eyelashes a lot, which really bothers me, and she is sweating like crazy. She hasn’t run a temperature but she wakes up in the mornings and her clothing and the bed are quite wet. The first time it happened I thought her diaper had leaked.
She has a clinic appointment on Monday, with another lumbar puncture (spinal tap) to check for leukemia in her spinal fluid. Aside from that, I’m hopeful that she will feel pretty good next week. She will be off almost all of her medications until the end of June.
Yay for the break in meds!! Congratulations, Serenity! You’re doing such a great job 🙂
tears come to my eyes to read this! I am so happy for the break for Serenity!
You are all in my prayers.
Her pictures make me want to scoop her up and give her a hundred kisses! Poor baby feet!
I am so glad she will have the break from steriods. I pray she feels better and has a complete recovery-QUICKLY.
