Physical Therapy and Food

Well, it's been another week, and Lissa made her second trip to the doctor on Thursday. The previous week, they lessened her nausea medicine, and pain medicine. Lissa was not able to take the loss of the nausea medicine, because she was very nauseated all week. She lost about 12 pounds, and didn't eat much of anything. So, the doctor put her back on that, and she seems to be doing better eating since.

Friday she went to her first physical therapy appointment, and her doctor there is going to have her take an MRI on her arms. They want to do more testing specifically on her right arm to see how much damage has been done to the ulna nerve. The left thumb may need some repair work as well. Please pray that these tests would be helpful and that the physical therapy could increase the capabilities that she has with her arms and hands... And that she would continue to keep eating.
