Well, it appears that Maggie might in fact have a virus. We called Dr. French today, her oncologist, to find out what he thought or what we should do. He didn't think her nausea was related to her chemo, but instead a virus. He suggested continuing Zofran 3 times a day and actually upped her dose. We also found out that Maggie's cousin has similar symptoms as Maggie, which makes it seem more like a virus as well.
Along with some nausea, she is experiencing some diarrhea. She has managed to nurse a bit more today, but still is not too interested in solid food. She experimented with some pizza this evening by putting it up to her mouth, though she ended up throwing it to the floor pretty immediately afterwards.
Hopefully this will all pass very soon and she will feel better once again. Thank you for your continued prayers.

Praying for little Maggie that this virus would be gone soon. Even though we don't talk every day, I think of you guys multiple times throughout the day. Let me know if there is anything I can ever do.
Whitney...we made a good call on Thursday, with Maggie starting to feel not herself and the germs in my household. Now Dan has a cold and I fear I am getting an ear infection. I can hardly wait to meet Maggie, but when we're all healthy again! See you Tuesday.
