Tom has given Riley his I pod. Riley is shouting when he speaks and singing to the music. He is feeling much better. but the fever is still malingering at 100.5 . I am told that the steroids will make Riley feel like he is PMSing so I should cut him a little slack with his aggressive bad manners. I don't know. He needs to behave. But I think giving each of us some space occasionally is a good idea. Even with only the three hours of sleep at home last night I feel refreshed.
Riley got so tangled in his coat rack cords he has started just closing the curtain behind the door and peeing in the corner with his little urinal, just standing up out of bed and going. He says don't look mom.
Riley still has an ugly rash all over his body. the doctor said it was a reaction to the primitive condition of the ATG horse serum. He said it was doing its job and so was Riley's body fighting it.

Yes, a caregiver has to care for herself sometimes too, or she can't do her best. So, remember, taking a little time away is good for Riley AND you. Don't forget that!
ReplyDeleteI am glad Riley is better today. My ipod is a big mood lifter for me, too.
