7/11/05 - Hannah is feeling SLIGHTY better today. She has thrown up less BUT her temperature has been ELEVATED all day. She has been receiving tylenol every few hours which brings her fever down for a short while, then it starts to rise again. It was going as high as 39.8 celcius. Her morphine drip was increased today due to the pain in her mouth, throat & stomach. She was crying +++ because of pain. She still has no interest in eating ANY food and drank about a 1/2 glass of water all day. BUT the good news is Hannah's weight remains the same at 13.3kg (29lbs 4oz) so the TPN is effective and there is NO CONCERN there. Hannah was sitting up in bed for short periods of time today playing barbies. She also had a bath & a hair wash, which she DID NOT enjoy. Hannah is having slight hair loss all over. She is up and talking during the day and only napped 1-2 hours today. Hopefully she will have a great night sleep tonight. There are still no results yet from the blood cultures taken yesterday. Because having a fever is VERY NORMAL no futher testing will be done unless the fever continues for more than 4 days. Right now it's taking things ONE DAY AT A TIME and hoping that each day is BETTER THAN THE ONE BEFORE.
