Tough Cookie (Transplant Day +4)

Last night, Mia had a bloody nose in the middle of the night due to low platelets. She will most likely need platelets every other day for awhile until her body recovers. She also had several low grade fevers since last night, so they sent another blood culture. Fevers and low platelets are both normal following transplant. She woke up nauseous and vomiting again but quickly recovered and began her day!

We had PT this morning and tried out a new strap to help her right leg which is weak. She walked great and worked hard! Of course, she wouldn't wear it for me later in the day but I'll keep trying!

Even though she woke up cranky this afternoon, she went for a walk with dolly! She is pretty amazing! She keeps moving to and going despite feeling miserable! She's one strong kid and is definitely an inspiration!

Both boys are having a great week so far! Ryan is enjoying basketball camp and Logan came home singing and practicing for his big show tomorrow! I can't wait to see pictures!

Keep the prayers coming, Team Mia!
