Scans and tests

Was a long day today...
Had to stay still for the MIBG scan; she did fantastic. Didn't need sedation.


CT Scan. Also did real well stay very, very still.

Labs were good. 3 Foot 1 inch tall, 31 pounds. Gaining steady weight.

On the scanner.
Even though they strapped her in, she really didn't need it because she stayed really still for the cameras to get good images.

Yesterday's first day of tests was kind of hard. They couldn't draw blood from her until the 6th poke. She had to get poked 3 times on her left hand, once on her righ elbow, and twice on her right hand.

Been a long time...



Yes, it's been quite a long while since I updated this. Same ol boring stuff that I've been writing about. Work is very, very busy...kids growing and enjoying summer...Jeannine and I celebrated 10 years together...went to Disneyworld (very good time)...Jovee's got updated scans next Tuesday and Wednesday which means results by Thursday. She's been sick with this bad cough lately, says her leg hurts behind her knees. This chest congestion might be the culprit of the little issues she's been having lately so hopefully that's all that it is.

Yes, I will do a better, consistent job starting tonight. Thanks for still thinking of Jovee and our family.
