A long week

Broc checked into La Porte hospital on Tuesday for some much needed iron. He's been sleeping a lot lately and looking very pale.  We are really hoping it helps him feel better. He has also been running low grade fevers for about 2 weeks. 

Broc wanted to give back to all the children that are admitted to La Porte hospital so over the last couple months we collected some toys and games to keep them busy. Broc knows too well how boring and lonely a hospital stay can be. He has also been told that he will have his wish granted and wanted to share some of his joy by donating the toys and games.




Thursday Broc was fitted for new SMO' s or foot braces as he had outgrown bis. We are also adjusting them a little to help remind him not to walk on his toes. They will take some getting used to but hoping they will work for him.




Friday Broc was very laid back. He layer on the couch for most of the day. Saturday he took a long nap and his fever started to climb. Sunday morning he woke up feeling awful and his fever had spiked past the cut off for him so Mark and I packed him up and took him to the ER.

There they followed his protocol . I was really worried that we would get a Dr that hadn't dealt with Broc before but thankfully we got Dr B. She knew exactly what to do for Broc and how to treat him. Broc continued to have fevers so his team was called at Riley.  We waited for a long time before the ambulance came to transfer us. We waited for 10 hours for the ambulance.


 Playing UNO with daddy always makes the time go faster.



Entertaining Grandad. It was so nice to have my dad sit with Broc so i coukd go home and pack clothes and food for our trip. It was great to have him wait with me for the ambulance last night. Thank you too Kaderlys for coming to visit us. 
We arrived around 1am this morning. After all the bazillion questions,dressing change and cap changes we finally went to sleep around 5:30am. 

Thank you for all the love,prayers,kind words and support.
