Aunt Brittany




Thanks to Aunt Brittany, I definitely started today with a grateful heart!
Britt came and hung out last night, slept over, and came to Isabella's clinic appointment with us...
it was SO nice to have someone there with me, and Bella loves her Aunt Brittany.
Bella had a rough morning, and was NOT happy to be back at the hospital.
She was so grumpy, uncooperative, and just angry.
Having Britt there really helped me keep my calm, and make the load of everything easier.

Bella has been so sweet since her treatment, especially towards me.
Today was different though...she was so angry and irritable.
The steroids she is on are definitely starting to shine through!
Her emotions, whatever she is feeling, are to the extreme.
When she is loving-she tells me over and over how much she loves me.
When she is angry-watch out cause your head will get ripped off.

Luckily she is on the steroids for only about a week and a half.
I'm grateful she can have this treatment, and I need to remind myself of that in the moment 
when nothing calms her down, and I just want my sweet little girl back.

Good news though, she didn't need a red blood transfusion today.
Her levels stayed at 10, so I was able to make it back home and go to Tyler's Christmas Devotional.
We will head back there Monday to get her levels checked and most likely transfuse her then.
