Day 7

 I think Chloe has perked slightly today.  She came down and sat in the sun out front for about 10-15 minutes twice today so far.  She spends most of the time in her bed, both because she is supposed to stay isolated and also because that's really all she wants to do or has energy for.  She says both walking down the stairs and back up are completely exhausting.  Going down makes her legs ache the most.  Yesterday we started a forced walking routine where we set a timer she has to come and walk around the house for 10 minutes.  I read that she should do that every couple hours no matter how exhausted and tired she feels. Today, just a few minutes ago was the first full sentence that she has said to me since she started feeling sick, so that was a big deal in my mind.  It might be something no one else has noticed ("no one" being Myke because he's the only other person who has spoken to her in person) but she has only given 1-2 word answers to questions we've asked, and other than that hasn't really spoken much, if at all.  It seems like she just hasn't had the energy to speak almost.  I'll see if Myke has had a different experience...maybe she just doesn't want to talk to me?! lol...On the plus side, it has been a week since we've experience tween sass and attitude.
