Hazel is singing a happy tune this morning again. Even though she is having her PICC line bandage changed right now and it is not pleasant, she is so good. Not a whimper out of her and she is brave, really so brave. Everything she does is a teaching moment for those around her. They are constantly in here doing this and that to her. She told us this morning she did not sleep all night. Lowell who stayed with her confirmed that.
Her numbers are looking better but her white count is still high indicating to the infectious disease team that the infection is not resolving as quickly as they would like. Another of the markers for the infection is slightly elevating. They are on a wait and see mode right now because they can fluctuate but if it is consistently going up they they will have to come up with something new. Right now they are ok with this place she is in.
Ironically on Facebook today they had one of my "memories" from exactly two years ago. It was Hazie's first good day after her Veptr (Vertical Expandable Titanium Rib) back surgery in 2014.
Hazie was 7 in these photos.
The bacon and apples
are a common sight on her trays.
I have been bringing her a honey crisp apple daily
this time and it is usually the first thing she eats.
I thought you might like to see these sweet photos
of Hazie when she is not in her hospital gear.
Are these precious shoes not every little girl's dream?
Taken a few weeks ago by Chloe.
So Hazie has had another good day under her belt and what a blessing. This hospital really is the best, the very best for little ones. They have a lot for the families as well. They had a Sacrament Meeting for the families here at 1:00. It was short. Only about a 30 minute service but it was power packed with comfort for these special kids and their families. Jim and Julia and I enjoyed it very much and felt uplifted because of it. Check back tomorrow! Until then, Happy Sabbath to you.
Love, Hazel and Co.
