Today Nadia had about 30 mins of chemo and about 1.5hr platelet transfusion (Thank You Donors!). The rest of the day she was unhooked from Ivy (her IV pole) and spent much of the day in the playroom. She certainly made up for lost time being essentially locked up in her room for 4 days straight. She was literally bouncing off the walls (which is totally OK since she got reloaded on platelets, so no bruising 😉 ). Wow – does she run fast!
It was a struggle to get her back to the room for bedtime …
On the plus side, we got to give her a bath today! We learned how to properly cover up her IV line to keep everything dry. This is a skill we need to learn well because when we move into isolation Nadia will need daily baths. This will be a big change for us all since we normally on bath Nadia once a week whether she needs it or not! 😉
