Kevin and I want to take a moment to thank everyone who has donated to Olivia, our family and the OliviaStrongFoundation in the past and most recently. We apologize if we’ve yet to reach out as life has been quite hectic during the last 6 weeks. We’re so blessed to be surrounded by great family, friends, coworkers, and people we’ve never met who now know Olivia’s story, thank you all.
We are in the hospital for another night for monitoring for the mouth sores and nutrition. It’s obviously hard for her to eat with the mouth sore but they are having to keep her on pain medication to help. They’ve given her a continuous drip pain med so we aren’t just deal with pain spikes in hope to help her manage the pain and eat better. Also, the mouth sores won’t heal as quickly given the radiation is hitting the same spot each day. Needless to say, she was not happy about staying.
Oh…let’s not forget to add nose bleeds to the list! Fun times!
Hopeful for discharge papers tomorrow!
