Anna is doing great, she is enjoying her last days of the weekend. She is been sleeping in in the morning and going to bed late :-). She still on her blood pressure medication. We have to go back to the hospital on Wed. and hopefully we will still hear positive news :-).
We got a little problem with the medical insurance, i got a letter last night that our insurance will be on hold until next month(January). That just blow me away, how in the world they think they can do that. I have to go with Anna every week and what i will be doing there with out her insurance. Please keep us in prayers, i will be contacting them first thing in the morning to try resolve this situation.
Thanks

FFF--- Thankfull

We are Thankful, that Anna is getting better.



We are Thankful for our family.
We are Thankful for ALL our friends for helping us this year with our needs. Most of all we Thankful to God that He is here with us everytime we need Him!!!

We had our regular trip to our children hospital. Anna's labs are great!!!!
We still didn't be able to get together with our DR., she had a lots of meetings today. I did heard from others, but not the officially from our DR. that we might will get our line out if her labs will stay good for at least another 2 weeks!! I think that is greatest news we can receive before Thanksgiving. But they did increase her blood pressure medications:-(. Hopefully as her labs getting better, her blood pressure will get better soon, so she will be off all her meds.
We wish you all have a GREAT THANKSGIVING!!!

We had relaxing weekend. It was nice not to be in hurry, to try get things done. Elementary schools have parent teacher conferences, so i will find out how every think going with her.
Anna is having a little high blood pressures, i hopping to see our Dr. this wed. It is very hard to catch her:-) as we coming to the hospital for labs and we don't have app. with her. Our plan for this week is the same we will get labs done, then wait if she needs her treatment. After we will be done we planning to visit Carrissa and her sister Shayne.

Last Wed. after Anna's BINGO game her friend got her ear pierced. Here are some pictures:

We had great time at the Doernbecher Children hospital. First we got Anna's labs and they were great!!! We didn't had to do any treatments, but Anna wanted to stay there longer to play BINGO game. She never misses them, after that we went to the mall with friends and just to look around and one of her friends got her ears pears ed. Anna was exited to watch her be so brave:-)
It was good to see Anna had a great day with her friends and start thinking, that she doesn't need to think, that all her trips is about treatments. She is existed that she is on the road, when she doesn't have to have them.
We didn't see our Dr. so she still on same medications for her blood pressure, but if that won't go down soon, then they will have to change it. We would like to see her to be off of it very soon.

We have to go back to the Hospital next week and do her labs again. Anna and I hopping that God totally healed her and we get her line before New Year.
Please pray today for Carrissa and Jared they having their testings today.
Have a great day!!

Tomorrow we are having trip to Doernecker Children Hospital. Are plan is to get our labs done and hope we can start skipping treatments every other week :-)

Anna does have a little viral infection, but not having any fevers or any sign that she is sick. Her blood pressure is a little high, they might will be changing her medication. Please pray for great day tomorrow.
Thanks

Have a blessing weekend

Anna's treatment went very well if not include how long it took them to get new line to work. If you wondering then it took us from 11:30 till 3 to finish her treatment, that usually takes about an 1,5 hours. Yes we were there all day, and Anna acted different, we kept asking if she is OK. She was looked so different, i think she was worrying what will happen if we won't get her line to work. But Mike (our treatment nurse) never gives up, he kept asking Anna to change positions, that didn't help, then he used TPP to get any clotting away, Then we got it to work.

We went and got an ice cream after we done, that lifted her up:-) For now are plan is to go next week and get labs done, then they will decided if she needs treatment or not. We do have one scheduled the day before Thanksgiving. We can't stay off from the trip to Dornbrcher, but we hopping we can stay off from treatment.
Have a great evening.

We having days off at school. Anna won't be back there until Thursday. Today we went to visit our friends at gymnastics. Anna misses them so much, we will try to go back on Friday :-) Anna did try to play on the bar, that girl can't stay off the equipments there. Sorry doctors :-) She even managed to jump from low bar to high and she love it. We hopping she will be back there very soon. We planing to go back and visit everyone on Friday, as today, there was only some kids there.

This Wednesday Anna will have her treatment hopefully it will go very well and her labs will be good.

Funny

Anna got up on Wednesday morning, trying to get ready for our trip to Doenrbecher. I took a look at her line and her second stitch was out so her line was a little out then it should be. I had to call the doctor, to let her know, that there bight be a problem with her line. When we got to the hospital we had to get our x-ray done. We waited for it for about an hour, then we found out that they totally forgot about us :-) Her line was ok and we went to get her treatment done. There was a little trouble to start, but it went ok. Latter our Dr.A came and she took a look at her line, then we found out that it needs to be replaced before she will loose it. So we had to stay up in Portland for our surgery on next day.

On Thursday it went very smoothly, we had some discussion on not putting any tape on her body as she is allergic to it, they did their best. She came out with no problem and we were on the way home. She still in a little pain around her line, but she is doing great. She will be staying home today.
Our next plan with Anna's treatments was that she will continue once a week and if her labs are stable, then we can go every 2 weeks :-)
