Ally went to her hospital appointment today. The end result was, other than the shot she needed, a waste of a trip. Ally, Daddy and Grampa got to see the oncologist for about a minute and a half, no time to answer any of the questions we had. Then they waited around for the nutritionist to tell them to feed her high calorie foods....dumbest advice ever...we already know that! Ally is down to 18 pounds 3 ounces. She still has a restricted diet, so that limits us a bit. No peanut butter until she is 3. That is a stinker, we were hoping that since she is close to 2 she would be able to eat that now, but no. Well, we will continue to constantly offer her food and even trick her into eating. Hopefully she will at least maintain her weight for the next 2 weeks, when we have to go back for another hospital visit.
