Day 36 July 10, 2009

Friday-After a night of no sleep, I thought we would have had some extra naps today but nothing. Cody tried but just could not sleep. He is getting steroids again so that played a part. We decided to try a bath this time since the shower was a huge problem but that turned out to be a nightmare too. Sponge baths for Cody.

I spoke in detail with the neurologist and we talked about medication. I also met a different psychiatrist and we have a new plan. He introduced a new drug on a 'as needed' basis and we will continue with the original one. Cody got the new one around 3 but did not sleep although the itching and lip biting seems to lessen considerably. He ended up falling asleep around 6:30. He woke up here and there but slept pretty well.
