We continue to get out & about, taking walks, running errands,
and just regular everyday stuff.

Sam's been having trouble sleeping through the night (likewise, mom & dad have been, too), but I'm sure she'll get back on a regular schedule soon.

PT was fine ; Sam will go weekly, and we will work on stretches at home, too. Tomorrow it's back to the kidney docs; hopefully we're still holding steady in that dept. Sam's been vomiting w/meds (as usual) and some w/her feeds, too; we'd sure like to get a handle on that problem.

Around 3:00 today, she said "hungy" to me --
she'd been off her feeds since 6:30 a.m., so I guess it takes that many hours for any sort of appetite to kick in -- so I broke out all her favorites to see what she'd take. She puts things in her mouth, but seems a bit gun shy at swallowing solids. She drinks things w/no problem. She's especially into sweet fruits right now, and will take bites of plums and peaches, but I find a lot of it stored in her chipmunk cheeks hours later!

Oh well; it's still progress. Let's hope she continues in that direction!

Thanks,
Jessica
