Neonatal Alloimmunethrombocytopenia. What a mouthful. That lovely disease is consuming our days and nights and money and energy and everything else! I have been going to the hospital once a week to get about 150 grams of immunoglobulin through an I.V. (which is made up from about 20,000 donors). I go one Tuesdays and am wiped out by the time I leave, as it takes about 7 hours to transfuse. Wednesdays are spent in bed. Thursdays are spent in bed. Fridays are iffy, but tend to be good by the evening. Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays are awesome. So, let me tell you some great things! My mom and dad have totally sacrificed so much for us. My mom moved in with us a month ago and takes the children Tuesdays through Fridays, cleans, cooks, plays and does every other up-and-above thing you can think of. My dad flies here every other weekend so they can see each other and he can spend time with the kids. We couldn't do this without them. We couldn't do this without the prayers on our behalf, without the people thinking about us and fasting for us. This has been an amazing experience- so humbling... so so humbling. Thank you. I am so grateful for the people who make life worth living and making a life for! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
