Last night was great compared to the night before. She only got up twice and seemed relatively happy. Overall we had a pretty good night. The nurses aid come in a “petal’d” her cast. Which means that they placed soft mole skin pieces around the edge to make it soft and comfortable for Olivia. I believe they call it petaling because it looks like flower petals. They then laid her on her stomach to be able to do the back of her cast. She didn’t like it, but they said it was important to keep rotating her so that she doesn’t get sores.
She still has slight fever, so we try and give her Tylenol. She freaks out on it… which is so odd since she drank the nasty valium without any issues, she also chewed the nasty perciced, yet she puts her foot down on the flavored Tylenol. It takes 3 doses before she will finally swallow it. By the third dose, I told her if she doesn’t swallow it we will have “more”. So she finally gives in and swallows it.
She asked for eggs for dinner so I rushed to the cafeteria before it closed and they made her two eggs, and gave me some raw onions, which she loves. Plus they gave her some toast. She ate really well.
They removed the IV they had in her hand since she still has one in her foot and the one in her hand was not flushing anyway.
