Todays Doctor Visit
May 18, 2010
So today was another doctor visit for my daughter. Very frustrating for us. We were expecting to be there for four hours. Turned into six. first they were running behind, then it took two different nurses 4 tries just to get the IV started.
My little girl took it really well for the most part. She is so very calm with all of it. My wife and I were the ones ready to go ballistic on the staff for poking her so many times just to get one IV going. Still not 100% sure if this whole thing will work or not and no one seems to be able to give us a definaitive time line on when we even might know if the treatment is working (maybe six months with our next bone scan).
Lets top today off with the usual five o'clock rush hour traffic going home which we never should have had if we had left the doctors office on time) today was on the high stress side and we get to do it all again tomorrow
We have been promised that tomorrow is a slow day and there will not be as much paperwork so we should get out on time.
We are just hoping that the IV (which is still in her arm for tomorrow) does not collapse the vein and that she does not pull it out. It has to be frustrating for her not understanding).
Wish us luck and I will fill you in tomorrow.
Here is a good picture of me and my girl at the doctors office.

Thanks for reading.
