The doctors are now looking at the possibility of India having nerve damage and that being the cause of her pain. They are starting her on
Gabapentin in a few minutes to try and target this debilitating pain.
We weighed India today and she has gone from 67+/- pounds to 55+/- pounds. It's very difficult to get India to eat now. Imagine your 15 year old weighing 55 pounds.
India slept for most of the day; she's sleeping now. Neither India nor I have had more than 2 hours of sleep at a time in weeks; we are exhausted.
She is incredibly pail and fragile. As I sit and watch her sleep, I pray that India will regain the strength to recover and get on with life.
And all the while that this living nightmare is taking place, it's only me who is by her side each and every day; no excuses.
This breaks my heart and if I'm distraught, imagine how India feels.
