The End of the Treatments

Darcy is now freed from her prison seclusion, and is recovering from being hypothyroid for over 2 weeks. She's still very tired (in fact she's asleep as I type this), but seems to be in good spirits, and is getting better all the time.

Doug is due in town this afternoon, to help out with the transition this week. I'm looking forward to challenging him mightily throughout the week with tasks ranging from changing diapers to addressing what can be generously described as a "refrigerator". From the current state of it, that's probably a very generous description. He's brought his guitar, he says, so I suspect a hootenany may be in the offing, as well. It'll be a fun week.

Darcy really had very little reaction to the medication - some small swelling of her salivary glands, but no pain or discomfort to speak of. The hardest part was the boredom from being cooped up, and of course being so very hypo.

I'm looking forward to her recovery and to getting back to the normal business of being a busy family.
