Transfusions

This is what you will find Bella and I doing every Monday & Friday...

just playing in the Clinic while we wait for blood test results and while she gets transfusions.

Today she ended up getting a platelet transfusion, and hopefully we last through Christmas

not getting a red blood cell transfusion.

She loves playing with the kitchen, and because of all the cravings (from the steroids)

she is making me some mighty fine grub...macaroni, chicky nugs, hot dogs, and pizza! LOL

It's amazing to me how we can sit there and she can play while this blood is going into her tiny

little body and saving her life.

I never thought that donating blood would effect me so much, and so closely.

I am SO grateful for all the blood that is donated, and all the lives that are saved each day because of it!

She was so good today, and can I just say how nice it is to have her port in, and they don't have to poke her!

It has made a world of a difference, and you can add that to the list of things I don't want to take

for granted...I am so thankful and grateful she can have that!
