I know I have been MIA, but I felt since Thanksgiving is coming up I should do an update. We went to Minneapolis, last Wed thru Friday. It was a great trip. Amelia will not be officially 6 months till this Sunday the 27th. We had a great visit with Dr Wagner, he was very pleased with how well she looks and how well she has been doing. We did counts and they were about the same as they have been. Holding steady and I'll take that. She went to peds sedation and had her bone marrow biopsy and line removed. She did great with both of them. She was a bit nervous about the line coming out. I told her it would be a cinch, but after 6 months you become attached to it. Her biopsy went so smooth, one stick and a very small bandage and hardly any blood, much different compared to the last two that she had. She said I want that NP next time to do it! Line came out and she was fine with it being gone. I know though when we go to clinic next week she is going to hate getting stuck for her CBC and other counts.
While we were there we were able to catch up with Chloe who's BMT was just 3 days before Amelia's. We also got to catch up with Lisa, Sam's mom. Sam is undergoing his 2nd transplant. We are praying that this is the trick that Sammy needs!
Ty had his iron infusion on Friday, this time it is taking longer to kick in. He will go back to the doctor on Friday to see if he can be released to go back to work. Tomorrow we will be going to the cardiologist for the Echo. This is the cardiologist that saw Amelia when she was born and for about 3-4 years after. He will do the Echo right there in his office and we will get the results right then and there. I feel very confident that every thing will be fine but I need to be 100% that there are no deformities in there. I know we will probably never know why his heart rate decided to soar that day.
So even though we have a lot going on we have a lot to be thankful for. Among those a few are, God, Family, health and Love! May you all have a wonderfully blessed Thanksgiving!!
Blessings,
Kelly and family
