On the mend

Lukas went to church with me today while Tom stayed home with Natalie. Lukas is doing much better, but decided to be in a bad mood most of the day at church. Hopefully as we get back into our schedule this week, he'll come around.

Today I actually felt "good" for the first time in a long time. Tom didn't feel good this morning, but feels pretty good this evening, so he may go to work tomorrow. Natalie is looking better, but she's still clearing her throat a lot, and she's arching her back a lot more than usual. I don't know if the arching is because of some kind of pain, or if she has fallen into the habit of arching to avoid when I suction her nose. She will eat by mouth well one meal, then not eat much the next. Thankfully, she hasn't had a fever for several days, so it's just a matter of time before she gets rid of the chest cough.

We'll see how she is in the morning before we decide to get back to regular swallowing therapy at CHOC.
