mri

Hello all, we made it through the MRI today, it was a LONG day! Its funny, I thought the hardest part was the before when she had to fast and she did fine and was her normal sweet and social self flirting with patients and staff alike. The after I thought would be a breeze because I naively (that is probably not a word, sorry Sue) assumed that previously when she would scream and cry coming out it was from the pain of having surgery and that she would be groggy and hungry but no big deal this time. Well she was pretty unhappy for a long time and is still what I would consider "fragile" as she is taking a nice warm bath right now intermittently starts to cry. But overall it was a success and if we focus our prayers on a crystal clear result she will never have to worry about that again. We have our pre-op appt on Mon and then its gearing up for surgery on the 15th. I feel as though I am trying to keep my head down and barrel through this month, hold my breath until January and then breathe. On top of all of these things I may have to change job locations (quite involuntarily) and believe it or not I got summoned for jury duty AGAIN! I feel as though it is raining inconveniences. I am just glad I did all my Christmas shopping before Thanksgiving! Well enough griping for tonight God is good, he got us through a long difficult day and gave me two wonderful parents who sat with me for seven hours at the hospital so Craig didn't have to take another day of work. Now I am of to cuddle my sweet baby girl off to bed. I will write again after our appt on Mon. Amanda

  1. Be sure to snuggle them both and give them a kiss from Grandma. I might get in bed early to give my behind a rest from the sitting position. Hope the new childrens hospital has more comfortable chairs :-) Love you
