10th Scope

Arrived at the hospital for 6:30 am
Check in and as you can see in a great mood!




All blood work was done immediately, anesthesia papers and consult done, Dr. Monagus came in to discuss and check her over and platelets ordered. Platelet count was her normal 47,000 which was good considering they haven't been checked in 4 months. Rylee was a little hesitant to enter procedure due to Nana and Poppy not there to kiss her before she went in. They got stuck in Causeway traffic. They administered her platelets and put her IV in in the procedure room. It only took about 20 minutes and Dr. Monagus came to talk to us about his findings. He was very, very pleased. He found one varice forming but not bulging to band and her spleen has moved up again!!!! He seemed more happy about that than anything else! He said that it appears as she is growing it is moving with her growth but also that her veins are not obstructing its movement which is a big plus! We do not have to see him for follow up until January! Yes, FOLLOW UP until January!!!! This is exciting news. We had blood work done for endocrinologist as well, but must wait on those results. We were called to recovery really quick and she was sitting up awake and alert, which has never been the case. Her first words were "where are Nana and Poppy?" The nurse was nice enough to stop and get them to accompany us to the elevator since Rylee was so concerned about seeing them. Big smiles from then on until she got hungry. She is a bear like her godfather when she is hungry! Danny and I are so happy and thankful for these results! What a great early birthday present for our baby girl! Thanks for all the prayers!
