Day 4 10/24/21

So she woke up acting so much better today. Wanting some chocolate milk, so she got chocolate pediasure so she could get some nutrients too. Her hemoglobin levels this morning were better, so she didn't need another blood transfusion. They still aren't normal but they are at least heading in the right direction. Her nausea is better but still not gone. She got her IV in her foot out today so she could go for some little walks. She's still really weak so she isn't going far. Hopefully tomorrow. 
Her swelling has really decreased today, it is pretty crazy how fast it has started to go down. She's still sleeping a lot, which isn't a bad thing since sleeping helps you heal. We just have to make sure to give her some fluids every hour. 

Unfortunately I think we will be here until at least Tuesday now, hoping to turn that corner tomorrow. But we will take it at her pace and listen to what her body needs to heal. 
Thank you everyone for all of the prayers and happy thoughts. Keep them coming.
