Hundredth Miracle!

This morning started out rough! Riley and I were waiting at the lab at TCH at 7:45 sharp to draw way too much blood. We killed two hours of time by riding the metro and playing outside and then she had her big Renal Appointment. Yesterday the nurse called to warn me that she may need a blood transfusion and may need to stay overnight! So besides having to leave the house at 6:30, I didn't sleep at all last night. I was expecting mediocre news and bracing for the worst!





But wouldn't you know it The Lord granted that sweet Riley girl her hundredth miracle!!

Doctor Riley (ironic name huh?) was pleasantly surprised that her blood work looked better from last week! In September her kidney function was at 78% and today it was at 99%!! Also there was no need for a blood transfusion and there was no talk of a feeding tube for her hydration either! She is still iron deficient so she will start iron pills tomorrow. And she needs further kidney testing which will require her to be admitted sometime over the summer. But overall it was a big win and huge relief!

It's almost like miracles are becoming the norm for this little girl! We are so incredibly blessed!!

Oh and Miss Keagan felt pretty blessed too! Because of our super early appointment she got to sleep at Sa's house. The report was that she went to bed at 9:30, had a Hershey's candy bar and fruit snacks for breakfast and did whatever she wanted all day!
