Friday Phone Dump…

Elevating her finger…because blood thinners keep the blood coming long after you are done with labs.

So fancy…

Just hanging out, playing some games…

This girl, she is so patient. Even though this ultrasound was very thorough (almost two hours), she laid like this, and never complained.

Taking a little break while they review her pictures.

When you have a month’s worth of allowance saved up, you really need your mommy to take you shopping at Target…

We get to the hospital at 7:30 in the morning on blood work days. We color, we “see our friends” (the lab techs, haha), and she gets her blood drawn at 8 am. When we are getting her immunosuppressant levels checked, her blood has to be drawn exactly one hour before her next dose, which is at 9 am. We pack her meds and bring them along so that she can get her 9am dose on time, and then we either head up to the next floor, to clinic, or we come home!
