Leukemia???


Leukemia ! On October 25th, 2010 we received a call from Dr. Smith with the results from Bailey’s blood test taken earlier that day. “We found some abnormalities in Bailey’s blood”, he said. “She has a very high amount of young white blood cells (blasts), and a very low red blood cell count “. There was a long pause, a moment of silence. “What does that mean?” I said. He then said, “Bailey has leukemia”. For a moment, time froze. Our lives were going to forever change. All you can think of is death and the thought of loosing your baby girl. The worst feeling of all is the unknown, not knowing the outcome of this disease.

Peacefully sleeping with Velvetine

Today Bailey got her PICC line removed.  What a long morning!  She had to have a temporary IV put in her wrist until tomorrow when she gets her Hickman catheter.  We had three nurses trying to find a good vein to put the temporary IV in.  After four different try's, bursting each vein they got, and Bailey pucking all over mom, nurse Kate finally got a good vein.  I'm so sorry my little baby has to go through all this!
