Ally likes to keep things interesting. We ended up spending 3 hours in the ER this afternoon.

Ally woke up in a great mood and with a dry diaper. Usually it is very wet, as we give her liquids all night long through her mic-key button. When she finally did pee she started to cry and said it hurt. Then she just played if off as if it were no big deal. So, we headed to Grammy and Grandpa’s house. Every time she peed she cried. So, we ended up calling her doctor and she was able to get us in to the ER right away (with a doctor waiting for us to show up). Great that we got to go right away, sad because we never got pie today. (You can feel sorry for us.) They determined it is not an infection, but just chemo making her irritated. So, we have cream and baking soda baths ahead of us. To top it all off Ally has developed a rash around her neck, down her back, where her IV was, and where her diaper rubs against her belly. The chemo is making her skin very sensitive.

Do I even need to say it? Ally was great at the hospital! Of course.

Happy Thanksgiving! (Even with the ER trip this one was better than last year, because last year Ally was in quarantine and we didn't get to see anyone.)
