Maddy was finally able to come home today. Her fevers have stayed away. We still have to give her her shots and she now is hooked up to IV antibiotics- we are getting good at figuring out how to work her portable pump! All of her counts (red blood cells, platelets, and white blood cells) are still low. She had to get another blood transfusion today before coming home and will probably need platelets Friday. Have we mentioned lately how grateful we are to all those who donate blood and blood products!!!!
Unfortunately, all of Maddy's beautiful hair is falling out again. Maddy wants to shave her own head- she mentioned something about a mohawk. : ) I will be sure to post some pictures if she gets her way.
Hi Miss Mushroom,,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are home!!!! You are such a brave girl! And now to think you want to shave your own head. About the mohawk -- I think you would be cute because you are cute NO MATTER WHAT! Remind your Mom of our saying, "What Maddy wants, Maddy gets!"
Don't let Mrs. Grieser work you too hard. You may need to remind her that there are only 8 more days of school.
I pray for you EVERYDAY!
GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME! ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD!
Take Care! Lots of Love from Petunia!
Maddy,
ReplyDeleteAre you doing the happy dance for only 5 more days of school yet? I am! I would never have enough courage to have a mohawk, but that just goes to show you - you're a lot braver than I am in so many ways. Your mom told me that you like a song from Mandisa called "Stronger". We've started listening to a song by Mandisa after morning anouncements called "Good Morning". Some morning when you need a smile and a "jump start" to your day you should listen to it- it just makes you want to dance, even if you're NOT a morning person. :-)Thinking of you-
