Another infection

She has another yeast infection (red bum, itching and discharge).  Antibiotics are helping.

She has been a little congested this weekend.  Nothing bad.

She keeps her arms up and tucked in close to her chest.  After she gets botox and phenol injections in her arms and hands they do a series of casts on her arms to stretch them out.  She is on week 2 of serial casting on her right arm. THen each week as long as she is gaining 5 degrees they put on a new cast to stretch it a little more.  THe first week it was purple, this week it is red.  The first 2 days seem to be painful, but after that she does Okay.

She also got some new arm splints/braces to wear at night to stretch out her arms while she is sleeping.
