Today was our second day, and it was much like the first. She is still very quiet and clearly grieving and scared. She is also still not feeling well and had to have her absess drained again today which was painful. The pnemonia seems a bit better but the doc said it can certainly fluctuate and she may have a fever the entire time we remain in China which would be a huge bummer for her.
She loves food and clearly stuffs herself as it appears she thinks she is still on the orphanage feeding schedule. There she only got two meals a day. But we are Harris's and we eat a lot, so she will soon figure this out. Food is never in short demand!
Tomorrow we are going to Shaolin Temple and seeing a Kung Foo show and the next day we are going to go to her orphanage. Given that she is still very much shut down emotionally right now, we are not going to take her inside. We are going to trade off so that she does not have to experience any further trauma. Today she started to panic when Patrick stepped around a corner and she couldn't see him anymore. Poor thing.
I am attaching a picture of Katie after her first bath. More to follow.....You know the drill.......it will only let me enter one photo at a time.
