Thankful for treatment

Today I am thankful for Zoe's treatment. Although there are negative aspects to an immuno-suppressant drug it has been proven to me this week that Zoe NEEDS her dose every 2 weeks without delay! She spends a day in hospital every second Tuesday.
The hospital forgot to order the Meds last fortnight and didn't realize until the day before Zoe was to to go in for her infusion. Therefore her appointment was cancelled and it became a waiting game for the Lab to contact the hospital saying when the medication would be ready.
Luckily for us it only took 4 days. Zoe had been in pain from the Friday before she was due for her treatment. It was a long week and a half, with Zoe crying every day.
Her knee started to swell on Wednesday, which is obviously why she was crying and walking a little funny.
On a positive note the Dr was able to see that her knee was swollen, which is not always the case! A lot of the time it is us telling the Dr what we see but them not actually seeing it for themselves, so this time I know it was taken into consideration.
Today Zoe seems happier. Her knee is still inflamed and she has started to cough again but she has stopped crying and I can rest a little. ;°)
