A New Normal

7:16am Today

Rebel seems to be adjusting. She doesn't like it, but she gets it. Water retention is playing havoc with the wardrobe choices and is very frustrating. We'll figure this out.

Meals continue to be an issue. Because her body isn't pumping very well, digestion doesn't always work the way it is supposed to. She worries about eating after 6 PM as it seems the upchuck factor seems to increase. So.. smaller meals - the *big* meal at lunch time rather than dinner, and she doesn't want to eat much or snack much in the evenings.

Might also have to do with upchucking around the *boys* in her life. (another whole note entry...but ... as the mother... I can't go there!) I tell her vomiting in front of boys who manage... equals true love. She in turn, rolls her eyes.

We are starting on the path to the new normal.
