Spring Break

Hope is doing better, and it's so nice to be able to cuddle her and not worry about vomitt! She's starting to look uncomfortable at times, and it appears that she's starting to stiffen up and posture like Ashley does, even moaning the way Ashley does. This is somewhat disturbing for us. We are constantly trying to keep Ashley comfortable, so I can't imagine both girls crying and moaning all the time. Hopefully we can find the right balance of meds/cuddles/excercise that can help with comfort. The Palliative Care team has been a great help in managing the meds and helping us problem solve.

Brodie is having a great week. Playdates every day. Spring break is so much fun with him home. The girls love hearing the sounds of the kids.
