interesting

Cady released a bit early this morning, but has since regressed to a dystonic state. She is alert and aware. While she is in pain, she is able to communicate very clearly.

Twenty minutes ago she was given the Phosphenytoin and Diazepam in the hopes that it will release her muscles again and stay that way. In the event that it does not, they would like to try Trihexyphenidyl (Artane). It is an antispasmodic used to treat stiffness, tremors, and spasms. It is used to treat Parkinson's disease.

I don't know if any of these pharmaceuticals are helping. I hope that they can find the right combination soon so we can all just fucking go home. She is asleep now,though.

Addy is doing a little better, so that's some good news.  She's been taking her Amoxcillin and Tylenol like a champ so she can get better faster. It's also helpful to have friends and family to help us with things like letting our dogs out, shoveling, etc. If any of you helpers are out there reading this: thank you from the bottom of our hearts. It means more than you will ever know.

More later.
