April 28, 2011 our lifes were turned upside down when our sweet Gracie was diagnosed with leukemia. It's been a roller coaster journey and filled with many ups and down, heartache and pain. But along the journey we've seen bright sunshine and flowers. Miracles. God's hand has been made manifest and we have felt His love for us and our children.

Mouth Sores
The happenings today...I discovered some mouth sores on Gracie. Poor thing...she has been SOO irritable and just miserable. Hasn't eaten anything but cheese quesadillas and plain noodles (only one specific type of noodle) and some green beans. Ding ding ding...salt is super painful for her mouth sores. It's hard to see in her mouth...I noticed one on the left side of her tongue when she was sucking on her binky then noticed it was all around her tongue and saw one on the inside of her lower lip. I'm sure there's more but can't see in her mouth without ticking her off. So I gave her some oxycodone and within half hour she was actually laughing lightly at Winnie the Pooh and having a great time with bubbles. Best part of my day!! Holding her while she enjoys some simple things. Had lots of help today...the Lord is definately watching out for us. Now please don't let us have another symptom or bad thing to post tomorrow. Clinic at 9:30 to get her checked...no chemo and her last dose of steroid is in the morning! So that's the good news for the day!
