Blogging

Okay, maybe I am getting old, but creating a blog is hard! Well, starting the blog was easy but making it cute is another!

I am just going to start posting and maybe one of my "cute blog" friends will feel sorry for me and come over and help!

I am so glad that April is here. February and March was not fun as far as our health and stress goes. On top of it being "sick season", I decided to work part time at a CPA firm. Haven't done that in a while but it has been fun. I didn't realize that I had missed working- a little.

As far as sickness, Reagan has had it all! Colds, strep, you name it. We stopped taking an antibiotic for her lungs in February and she has been sick every week it feels like.

In February, she had her yearly cath and biopsy. We were so excited about the results because she had no rejection. A week later, we got more labs back that the team was a little concerned about. Her EBV (Ebstien Barr Virus) levels had been slowy climbing for a few years. These labs are checked on a yearly basis. EBV can cause mono in most people but for Reagan who has a supressed immune system, it can also be the cause of PTLD, which is Post Transplant Lymphoma. DIDN'T want to hear that! At the time of the labs, she was sick with Strepp and was trying to get over that. After more labs, they determined that her levels were back to ZERO! PS- Thank you GOD for listening to the million prayers that were sent. You are good to us!!!
Next post will hopefully be with lots of pictures- It's birthday time at the POTTER house!
