Also, if I were you..I would go to group T before the shower as well.. Stink them all out.

Bahahaha....I'll be sure to take my socks off and wave them around a bit to make the stink-out really effective.
I'm going to have a talk with the doctor and my mom about what she can and can't do while she's at home.
And I'll definitely be sure to pay attention to my daughter. Actually, my daughter will be happier, I'd imagine, as she'll be with me in basically her "second home" rather than in a hospital room. A home that has better internet connection AND cable TV - which we lack in our home.
I don't want them releasing her until she is able to be home alone for at least a stretch of a few hours at a time, so that I have the freedom to do things. Otherwise, she won't be coming home. I am not willing to make that sacrifice.
My mom's mom also said she would come and stay with her (she doesn't drive though, so that doesn't help with taking her to the daily IV treatments - perhaps there's transportation the hospital can provide, or heck, call a cab)....I KNOW my mom doesn't want that - but it may very well be an option, especially if I find a job soon!
I can't let all of this responsibility and sacrifice fall on my shoulders.
