IV IG






Well today went well. It was such a long day. We left my house at 6:45am and didn't get home until 7:15pm!!! We hit rush out traffic going in and coming out of Boston. The people were wonderful. It took about 45 minutes to get the IV in, and two attempts, but they had this wonderful woman named Kaydesha who is a Child Life Specialist. Anyways she just distracted him during the IV and he barely even wimpered. And then the transfusion began. It took about 6 hours total and he did fantastic. THey kept bringing in all kinds of toys and snacks, so he was kept entertained. He also took about an hour nap which was great. Everyone kept admiring him and saying how cute he was, I couldn't help but agree:) He loves my sunglasses and so that kept him entertained for quite a while. I think that I had a rougher time with it than he did. I started to cry when we first got there, it was just so overwhelming, thank goodness my mom came, for the emotional suport. Thanks for all your prayers
