Steve and Brookie went to Spectrum today for her chemo and blood test. Her hemoglobin was......12.o!!! YEAH!!! The IVIG and blood they gave her on Monday is helping!! We understand that she will still need transfusions BUT it was so encouraging to only have one this week. This is just a glimmer of hope. Since this all started on August 10 Brooke has had 15 transfusions. That's alot of blood! We have a new appreciation for anyone that donates blood. Brooke eats better and is more alert when her hemoglobin is normal. She still has occasional screaming fits from the steroids. We just hold her and love her. We can't take the pain away but we can try.
I also have posted a picture we got taken of our girls a few weeks ago. They are so much fun and we are so blessed! God is so Good!
