Who's the cutest girl around?

I am a mom of a cutie pie (very biased). And I wanted to share my experiences with others (including my cuties grandparents, great-grandparents, numerous uncles and other relatives). I love being a mom and can't imagine doing anything else.

Quickest visit ever

Today's visit to the clinic went so well that we are not supposed to have to go back till next Thursday. That would be the longest break so far. It's exciting but makes me nervous too. Every other time there has been a big break in the visits we have had some emergency that lands us right back at the clinic. But we'll pray for the best.

WBC's were the lowest they've been in quite a while...24. Not bad at all. And RBC's are normal or right around normal. Platelets were the only thing to go in the wrong directions...down to 46. But still not the lowest we've had. Still no signs of chicken pox but they wouldn't show up till at least the 28th. Still waiting. The rash is all but cleared up and she is still being her hilarious self. She isn't eating quite as much cause they are slowly cutting back on the steriods. I can't wait till they are all gone.

I am getting sick now. I was up most of the night with a stomach ache. I could use lots of prayer. I would love to be able to relax and enjoy this holiday. Thanks everyone

By the way Rachel and I are going to be posting medical, educational info on friendsofalivia.blogspot.com along with the fund raiser info. (You can click on it and go right to the site) I ask that you all go and read the posts. They will explain things so that when transplant rolls ar0und I will be able to through around terms and you will all understand them. They will start basic and become more involved as we get closer to transplant. Thanks for taking the time to read them.
