's clinic appointment

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

Well, yesterday we had 's clinic appointment. It went pretty well. She

did not gain any weight but she didn't lose any either. I was very worried

since I know that we were not as vigilant about giving her tube feeds as we

should be over the holidays. In addition, I noticed another decline in her

appetite so the 2 things combined had me worried. Anyway, her lungs are fine,

and that is the most important thing.

Naturally, told everyone that we saw that " Mommy's having a baby!!! "

The best thing about our visit is that we ended up seeing Katelyn, a girl that

we had met when was first diagnosed. was only 9 months old at the

time and Katelyn was about 12 or so. She was also in the next time was

admitted and we ran into her at our next clinic visit (getting the picc line

out) We had not seen her in more than 3 !/2 yrs so it was great to see her

again. always likes to look at the picture we have of her and Katelyn

during that first admission and we had been looking at that picture in the

morning before clinic. wanted to ask about her at clinic. So I

mentioned to her that we would ask in front of the Resperatory therapist and she

said " Katelyn who? " When I said the last name she said " she is here right now,

in the room across from you! " What a coincidence! Katelyn has grown up so much

that, but for her voice, I am not sure that I would have recognized her!!! She

has turned out to be a pretty young lady.

Running into her made our clinic visit pretty good and it made pretty

happy!
