March 13

Well... scratch what I said about it just being the chemotherapy causing Madelyn's vomiting.  We have a stomach bug.  Ugh.  I woke up last night throwing up and continued throughout the night.  I spent the day in bed and Peter spent the day helping Madelyn.  She is still throwing up and not feeling good.  Poor girl.  Stomach bug plus chemotherapy = not fun.


Sophia spent the day with my parents which was better for her than here.  Now we are hoping that she and my parents don't get the "bug."  I can't believe we have had a stomach bug / flu twice this year!  Seems years since we've had one.  Luckily, Madelyn is not showing any signs of a fever.  Thank goodness.


I just now went to the medicine cabinet (for myself).  I have broken out with itchy hives.  I was debating taking a second Benadryl on top of the Tylenol I took for the aches.  Gosh, can my body handle both Tylenol and two Benadryl pills?  Maybe I'll overdose!  And then I thought, if my four year old can handle Vincristine, Methotrexate, two kinds of anitbiotics, a proton pump inhibitor, Zofran and Oxycodone, well probably my 36 year old body can handle some Tylenol and Benadryl.
