Treatment Day 4


Today we get to go home!
No one is more excited than this sweet little girl.
She has not left this room (other than to bathe or go on a walk around the halls) for 4 straight days.
In the past she has not asked to leave, but today she has asked a few times.

When we started packing stuff up tonight, she got all excited and said
"I go home Mom?  It's time to go home?"...and she's never put her shoes & socks on quicker!

They told us it would be a minimum of 4 days, but could be up to 14 days that we could be here...
only having to be here for 4 days is amazing.
She is able to leave after the last dose of ATG because she has done so well...
no rashes, fevers, or allergic reactions.
They are putting her on some blood pressure medicine since it was a little high, but nothing serious.
We still have to watch her carefully for fevers, rashes, or Serum Sickness-
which is another bad reaction they can get anytime up to about 14 days after the ATG is given.
I hope she keeps up the way she has been doing, and I know being home will make it even better!

What an emotional roller coaster the last 4 days have been, but in the end we are extremely blessed
on how well it all went!
In my mind I keep thinking that something bad has to be on it's way- for how smoothly it all went.
I know that God works miracles though, and I know he loves her so much.
I know that prayers are being said, and they are heard...every single one of them.
I can't say that enough!

I can't wait to lay her in her own bed, and have Ty run up to her in the morning and see their faces...
it will be like Christmas morning!
