Howdy! We had a regular check up at Children's Hospital yesterday. Mike went down with me and all the girls. It was a normal appointment with no worries. The doctor is still amazed at how miraculous Kelby's case is. We are happy.
She did say that she thought the risks of leaving her port in are now out-weighing the good it does for her, so we are going to have it taken out in the next few weeks. She'll have to have a real surgery and go under and everything. We've done that enough that I'm not too worried. We just hate to mess with her body when things are going so well.
She'll still have to go get lab draws when we get check ups every three months so she'll have to get poked. I guess we can still put emla (numbing cream) to put on her arm so it won't hurt too much.
It will be nice not to get her port flushed every month.
All is well with us!
