02/16/06 - This morning the OKAY was given for Hannah to begin eating again. She has not had anything to eat since Sunday night. Her G-Tube is properly in place and she will restart her feeds. She also can take food orally. Hannah DID SPIKE A FEVER this morning and therefore was started on IV antibiotics for 48 hours (protocol for fevers) Therefore, if she remains feverish she MAY NOT be able to come home before beginning her chemo on Tuesday. We will have to see how things go. Hannah still remains in a lot of pain from the incsicion BUT is encouraged by the doctors to get up walking. Hannah's platelet counts have been higher but she has been receiving blood transfusions because the docotrs want her level to remain high since she no longer has a spleen. We wish you all the best Hannah for a SPEEDY RECOVERY and pray that you can get back home SOON. WE LOVE YOU!!!!
