Day +74: bye-bye, Mom-momma!

Mina Brigitta continues to do well. I've felt like she's made progress every day she's been home, or at least since we got the anti-nausea med going. She, Isaac and Momma walked me to the train again today, but she seemed a bit startled when the train arrived and I had to put her down and quickly get on. Tonight she rode in the car-car, her first trip, on the way to the airport to drop off Mom-momma. Keri said she was so excited she talked the whole way. She has another trip to the clinic tomorrow. I'm hoping the doctors reduce her steroids some more.

Thank goodness Lyn was here for the last week. I don't know how we would have gotten through. Mina Brigitta really bonded with her again this time, so she will be sorely missed. It's going to be very hard on Keri to be at home with two kids home and effectively be on isolation. But the difference in Mina Brigitta from last Tuesday to today is like night and day, so hopefully Lyn helped us over the roughest part.
