Our potty training efforts have obviously been unsuccessful. At least we're finding some use for the new underwear we bought.

That underwear picture totally caught me off guard and I started laughing out of nowhere. I think my co-workers think I'm crazy.

Ok -- so I forgot that I'd seen that underwear picture and I started laughing out loud again. Came in here to comment and realized -- I already did. That is a priceless picture!

NICU

Image
Savanna completed her routine bilirubin test the day we were to be discharged from the hospital. However, rather than getting the news that all is well and going home, we learned that her levels were critically high and that she would need to go straight to NICU. She had a positive Coombs test, which meant that her high levels were a result of a blood incompatibility between me and her. There were a few options on the table to treat her, including doing a blood transfusion. They opted to treat her with as many phototherapy lights as possible and see what happened that night. If her levels didn't go down w/in 12 hours, they would probably do the transfusion. Luckily, her levels dropped out of the critical zone that first night. Her levels have been dropping more slowly now and she remains in NICU. She has been a real trooper during this time. Apparently, most babies hate the phototherapy lights because they can't be held and have to stay in there 24/7 and they cry all day

Good News!

I have some great news I want to share!  Last week marked the beginning of the 4th month of Chemo. Because I had passed the half-way point, a new blood test was taken to see where my cancer markers were.  This is done to make sure that the chemo is doing its job.  The cancer marker test for Ovarian Cancer is the CA-125 test.  A normal range for CA-125 is below 35.  When I was first diagnosed, my score was 668.  After surgery, right before I first round of chemo, my score had dropped to 194.  As of last week, my latest score is a whopping 32! I haven't actually talked to my oncologist yet...I just pulled this score from my lab report online. When I was in the hospital following surgery, an oncologist came to visit with me and told me that the best outcomes happen when the CA-125 test is in the normal range at the half-way point of chemo.  That is what I have been praying and hoping for and I'm so relieved to see that it has happened! I look forward to talking to my oncologis

Christmas in Missouri

Image
We got to spend Christmas at my Mom and Dad's new place in Everton, MO. We had a great trip. As we drove back into Ogden, Keira asked if we could turn around and go back to Grandma and Grandpa's in Missouri. The kids had a great time playing with their cousins, checking cows and going to the Handi Hut with Grandpa, and eating popcorn with Grandma in her theater room. Taking a cold walk through the fields looking for baby cows. We didn't find them. One of the favorite things to do was to go through Grandma's dress up box and dance to a Barbie Movie. Ryder was extremely proud of his beautiful outfit.
