Today was another great day for Chloe. <\/span>We were given permission yesterday to cut the neurontin to once a day so between the doctor, Dana, and I, we decided the one to omit was the morning dose. <\/span>So today was the beginning of the new regimen. <\/span>I had a moment of concern this am when Chloe got up and was eating her cereal. <\/span>She gave me that look and then headed for the bathroom to get rid of what she had just eaten. <\/span>I thought about going back to the regular doses, but decided to just watch her and see what happened. <\/span>The tube stayed down so we were ahead in that respect. <\/span>When she returned to the table I told her she didn\u2019t have to finish her cereal right away and maybe letting her tummy settle might be good. <\/span>She said no I want to eat. <\/span>So I let her call the shots and she finished her breakfast without any more problems. <\/span>Once again she showed me her grit and determination to get well. <\/span>The second breakfast stayed down and we had no more problems. <\/span>I promised Dana that when I was in charge I would only call her if we had a problem. Otherwise she was to relax and recharge. <\/span>This episode turned out not to be a problem. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Today was Ramona\u2019s birthday so we went to the store and got a cake mix and the stuff to decorate a cake. <\/span>That was our early day project. <\/span>Chocolate cake, chocolate frosting and pink silk flowers. <\/span>Chloe and Colin were my official tasters and they each got to clean off a beater; double dipped in frosting!!! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After making the cake, we watched a movie on TV (Disney \u2013 \u201cMonkey Trouble\u201d). <\/span>I love having grandkids. <\/span>They are a great excuse to watch the cute movies!!! <\/span>Chloe spent a lot of time yesterday and today holding Fire Bolt, and she even did his housekeeping chores.<\/span><\/p>\n

After Dad and Ramona got home from work, we all headed out to The Reptile House in Tigard to visit Tim and crew, and to get a look at the Gilla Monster she had heard so much about\u2026\u201dHe looks cute!\u201d was Chloe\u2019s comment about the lizard. <\/span>She got a chance to talk with Tim, who also kept a watch on the blog to see how she had been doing. <\/span>He was glad to see she is doing well and let her know he\u2019d see her next time.<\/span><\/p>\n

We all had a great dinner and then, after singing a rousing round of \u201cHappy Birthday\u201d to Ramona, we all dug into some cake!! Very moist and tasty!! <\/span>Just having Chloe home and getting better every day was present enough for Ramona and family! <\/span>The sparkle is back in Chloe\u2019s eyes and she is thriving on good food and lots of love and kisses.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers\u2026be back tomorrow with more good news.<\/span><\/p>\n
