Giovanni has had a hard 3 days coming off the decadron, previously the worst of it was 2 days, this time it has been 3 and counting. Tomorrow can only be better than today. He went to see his therapist today - she fit him in after my call this morning to see if she could see him today. We're going to find a way to get him through this, today's strategy was to up the ativan and the therapy session. If that doesn't work, we'll try some variation of this next month. For his sake (and the sanity of his parents) we hope this can come under control soon so that he can start school. Right now, there is no way. He's pretty much needed one of us on him all day to help minimize the fall out. In a couple days he should be more 'normal' than not and we can have some fun with him on Thanksgiving. We have fallen on hard times, but the important thing is that we have him healthy (relatively speaking) and we have our healthy, happy baby girl. When push comes to shove that's all that matters.
As Thanksgiving approaches be thankful for the good health of everyone you love and try not to let the rest of life get in the way of that.
Thankfully,
Suzanna
