We just finished Spencer's 6th birthday party at the skating rink. Holly made it through half of it before she had to have Sandy drive her home. Her bowels are officially completely cleaned out. Sorry about all the poop and puke blogs, maybe that worry is over. The doc says within a couple of days she should feel much better. She was 24 hours from having to go to the hospital because of the toxins accumulated in her and her inability to get them out.

She has not had pain meds in two days or nights, she just refuses. I think she needs them especially at night but she does not want to go through what she did the last two days. She does have a high pain tolerance.

Now it is time to gain strength every day. Her recovery has basically been delayed by so many ill effects of meds. Hopefully that is behind us.
