This morning, Caitlin was sick.
I was eating porridge (yup, I know. Not the best thing to eat before dealing with sick!) getting ready to go to work when Caitlin called down saying she had been sick. She had been sick, a lot actually. Poor Caitlin also had diarrhoea so we got her into the shower as I stripped her bed, & she was still being sick. She did this for about an hour, so a phone call to Ipswich hospital and a little while later we're where we are now: room B, PAU Ipswich Hospital.
1st thing the doctors want to do? Put a cannula in. Damn it, there goes my "no more needles" theory. This time, they can't do it. Caitlin's hands have taken all they can, so they have to take a blood sample by a finger prick. She's been on Diaralyte to give her fluids & she's asleep at the mo. For the 1st time in a while she's not hungry. Usually that'd be a sign of the decrease in steroids, but given where we are right now, we're taking nothing for granted.
Update again later.
