NPO for Alice

Yesterday morning the doctors ordered Alice to be NPO (no food or drink--nothing by mouth).  Of course she was not happy about that.  Shortly thereafter, they started her on TPN (IV nutrition).  She has been very hungry and sad, yet willing enough.  The sores in her mouth seem to be getting worse.  Still she is so cute.

Aunt Amber decorated her room for Valentine's Day.  It is very cute and fun, and has brought back many memories of this time last year.

Maybe tomorrow we will learn more about her situation.  When I arrived to see her today I learned that her diarrhea has slowed.  This is great....we hope this means she does not have graft vs. host.

Josh and McKenzie.  We couldn't tell why Alice was upset.  Maybe she didn't want them to leave...who knows.

    I just want to grab Alice and hug her! That sweet sweet girl is going through soooo much! "This to shall pass" :) I keep praying that Dr. Pulsipher will talk with the right docs and ask the right questions and FIND the RIGHT answers! We are cheering for you!!

    I hate mouth sores! Hoping she can use oral numbing stuff or something.
