Whiny...whiny...whiny June 23

LeLe took her first dose around 9:00.  I was very fearful that she would be sick to her stomach as she is taking the medicine by mouth.  When I say medicine, she is taking the injectable potion by mouth instead of us injecting her.  If this doesn't work, we will go to injections so please pray that it works! 

We laid around all day hopeful that we wouldn't be sick...and we weren't...and we felt the prayers. 

We decided to go to our neighbors house after dinner....we began a slippery slope downward as the drug began to sink in.  LeLe was not her perky self...instead...reduced to tears.  Our neighbor ended up driving us back home as we could not make it via walking.

Methotrexate round 1 - June 22

We are starting methotrexate in the morning for LeLes psoriasis.  I am very nervous about the whole process as we have been scared to death by all of the side effect waivers and warnings.  Unfortunately, we have been on steriod creams for over a year and nothing is helping my sweet girl.  As you can see from the photo, she is eaten alive by this stuff.  Her front, legs and arms all look like this.  So prayers Are appreciated!!
