ultrasound

o did great this morning! she couldn't eat or drink after midnight so last night i packed her food and cup in the car so she wouldn't see me do it this morning. i'd like to pat myself on the back for thinking ahead like that! gg and pops met us at the hospital in monroe and we got checked in and then waited. and waited. and waited some more. obviously st. francis north didn't know i had an almost 2 year old that hadn't eaten that morning! she was fine but busy. normally i can entertain her with food. not so much this time! we entertained her with lipstick. she's such a girl and i love it! once back she did ok. a little squirmy but what can you expect from a toddler? the ultrasound tech was able to get all the pictures she needed and she told us that o has a spleen! that's the best news! i'm still not sure how all these pieces will fit together for her final diagnosis/treatments but i know it's a good thing that she has a spleen! so now we just sit and wait until our next appt with dr. king on the 27th. i'm anxious about that one b/c i want the appt with the pulmonologist SOON! her breathing is so rattely and i don't know what else to do to fix it! 18 days and counting on the breathing...
