FOOD!

Abigail got to eat again at 3:30 and 6:30 today. 1/8th of a hot dog 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise, and 1 ounce of heavy whipping cream each time. She really likes mayonnaise!!!

Abigail actually did very well today and is starting to show signs of ketosis. She is slowing down and is not as frenetic as she usually is. She isn't really asking for food that much, but I have a feeling tomorrow may be a little difficult.

She met with Dr. Olson today and charmed the heck out of him :) She has done that with everyone she has met. Not a single person in the hallway today went with out a loud HIIII!!!! Many a sad person had a smile on their face after meeting with Abigail.
Here is Nurse Julia at the receiving end of one of Abigail's Patented Fierce Hugs!!!















Tomorrow we start receiving instruction on how to use the gram scale, measure portions, count calories, maximize fat calories, use a special program to determine fat content to protein and carbohydrate levels.

Here is a picture from the failed Metabolic test, Abigail really did not enjoy it, but as I said we have had to do worse tests before.















There are lots of nice balconies and even a roof top atrium however judging from this I don't think they want kids climbing around to much on the railing!! I always knew Californians were a bit different.















Abigail is doing well, Melinda and I are holding up. Monster energy drinks and large cups of coffee are my friends....very...very...very...good friends.
