Clearly, I'm catching up on all my blogging! Hope everyone is having a great GREEN day today. Thought we'd share these photos of our little Leprechaun Sawyer and Peg!
We have just a few medical updates and random tidbits of info...first of all, Cathy came by today and we were going over Peg's vitamins. We suspect that Peggy may have on occasion been getting her multi-vitamin twice a day. To avoid any further confusion, we have decided to pre-pour her multi with her other meds. HCA will be in charge of this as usual, so we are just removing it from the basket of supplements given by the private hires. As I understand it, this basically leaves COQ10, Milk Thistle, and Alpha Lipoic Acid to be given during the day.
I spoke to Ty last week and I forgot to mention on the blog that she says that it is OK for us to give Peggy the Tobradex ointment as often as needed. We should be using this only if acute redness develops and let's limit it to no more than once an hour. You'll see that we have recently gotten some Tobradex drops, this was a mistake and we have found that the ointment works better since it doesn't fall out of her eyes as easily. However, in a pinch, the liquid form is better than nothing.
Cathy has been taking a couple of urine samples since there is a possibility that Peggy may have a UTI. We are waiting to get results, until then there really is no change in protocol.
Peggy's eyes have been working great this morning. She has been working on her speech for WCC coming up this Wednesday. Indy and I made a little green (and organic) cake for St. Patrick's Day today, so we've been munching on that and hanging out. Lisa, Marvel, and Judy Moody all came in with no green on, so they all got pinches!
