Today we ventured out to Times Square. We had a shifty Taxi Driver who took the long way there, but it was still a fun taxi ride.
We started at Toys R Us. Ally was impressed with the giant T-Rex and LOVED Spiderman! She also was willing to take a ride on the Ferris Wheel. Lucky us we got the car that looks like a cozy coup. Ally enjoyed that. We then walked around and hit the Hershey's and M&M's stores. We then walked to Rockefeller Center and saw some people skating on the ice. We ended with a super quick walk through FAO Schwartz. Ally was completely tuckered out at this point and we took a much shorter and cheaper taxi ride back to Ronald McDonald House. Ally fell asleep quickly....and woke up 30 minutes later...not a good nap.
Ally is tired most of the time, but we are making her move around more than when she was in the hospital. She is not in any pain, but continues to vomit almost every time she eats. (For now this is okay, and we are supplementing her with tube feeds, which do not cause her to vomit.)
It was nice to see some of the city today. We took lots of pictures, but the internet connection is VERY slow here, so I am going to wait until we get home to upload them.
