July 30, 2013- Day 115
Bella spent last weekend at her grandparents' house and did really well. She had some foot pain that we attributed to homesickness and she quickly recovered from. She does have an ingrown toenail now. You can imagine how amplified that pain is in a GBS patient who is already super sensitive! We soaked her foot in Epsom salt tonight and will try some other remedies tomorrow night.
Tomorrow we will travel to Dallas for an appointment with Dr Castro, the neuromuscular doctor who treated Bella when she was at Dallas Children's. I tried to find a local pediatric neurologist but GBS is so rare in children that I just wasn't confident in the experience of the local docs. I am anxious and hopeful about this trip. I hope Dr Castro is overwhelmed with Bella's progress...we'll see.
The Giving Bella Strength event is THIS Saturday! We hope to see you there! Ticket information has been clarified and prices adjusted so check it out!
