Monday

Well, so far today is going pretty well. Alea is still home, not in the hospital. She is drinking pretty well and the diarhea has stopped. She has not vomited since Saturday and she is eating a few bites at each meal, definately not enough, but at least something. I am at the point of giving her whatever she will eat since it has been 6 days with no food. She ate 3 bites of waffle and 2 bites of cheese for breakfast, 1/2 slice of bologna and 1 tablespoon of peas and carrots for lunch. This is the most she has had in 6 days, so I am pleased. Hopefully she will eat at least that much at dinner. She had a few cheerios for a.m. snack as well. Please keep praying for her to get over the virus and for her appetite to come back soon. She cannot afford to lose any weight and I know she already has lost some.

Hey... light bulb moment. There is a drink mix I got for Joshua to help with calories. It's called Scandishake. You mix it with whole milk and it adds a TON of calories. She might like it. You can call and get a free sample, it would be worth a shot 1-800-472-2634 or www.axcan.com

Glad she is doing better!!!
