Presley: Steroids

Wednesday, April 10, 2013

Today is our last day of these nasty steroids. Steroid month is not our favorite. Here are a few pictures of what we have been doing the past few days trying to make it through these last days on steroids. It will take about 3-5 days for the steroids to wear off, and a few weeks for Presley to regain her strength. We eat, watch movies (all day), and try to sleep at night when she doesn't have pain or insomnia. Her belly is so big and tight, her legs ache, her bum hurts, and she is very weak. I love to take pictures of my sleeping baby, she is so peaceful. We eat about every 2 hours, a full meal. At the beginning is was scrambled eggs and toast and Dino chicken nuggets. The cravings then became pizza and quesadillas. The last week she wanted McDonald's chicken nuggets and fries (yikes) and ice cream. The steroids make her so moody, you just cant bribe, coax or change her mind. A three year old on steroids... they get what they want, no questions asked! I sure have some bad habits to break when this is all over. Until then, she deserves those happy moments to make up for the hard times.
