Bradley’s Severe Cortical Visual Impairment Blog

Another IV today, and all is well…

May 29th, 2009

Bradley had his second round of Stem Cells today and he did great again!  They had a little bit harder time getting this IV in his foot so Jason had to take him downstairs to the peds area of the hospital where they got the “oldest” nurse to put it in.  I’m sure they meant the Senior nurse and most experienced but whatever.  She got it in her first shot so we liked her!

Again we just sat on the couch as they ran the stem cells and flush through the IV and in my mind I’m thinking, we had to come half way across the world to do this?! Wow, at least we are getting the chance to do this for him, wherever it may be.  We do love China and have really begun to enjoy our time here.  If only they’d stop turning off the hot water! We actually had no water and some points today, who knows. 

So, he’s doing great.  We’re here playing in the room and will soon put the boys to bed and let the stem cells do their thing!  We want results so badly but we must remember that they take time and we may not see anything improvements for a couple months to come.  But, I know they’ll come.  Good night and love to all.

 this blog thing is so limiting and I’m sorry that we can’t figure out how to post all the pictures that we want to.  we’ll give it a break for tonight and hopefully i’ll be able to post IV photos tomorrow.
