Today went pretty smooth clinic started off with a good bang. Got into the lab found a nice vein yes it took them one try to get the needle in. Then went to the cardiology clinic and got into a room they took Makenzie weight she still weighs 25 pounds. Right after echo came and got us they did there thing and then we saw Michelle.
Makenzie's white blood count is a little on the high side so they said she might be fighting off an infection so i need to keep and eye on her to make sure she does not get sick. Her Prograf level was a little low so they bumped up her dose to .58 and we get to go next week to get labs drawn again.
Dr. Everett wants Makenzie to get another halter monitor done next week to see if the results are still good if they are they will want to lower her caffeine dose.
All in all it was a good day, just not excited for winter with the swine flu on the rise, yes she will need the vaccine for it.
I thank my Heavenly Father every day for the health my daughter has and the love she brings to are family.

Haltor Monitor Update
Last week Makenzie got a Halter Monitor put on and we got the results today. Michelle called me today and I missed the call so she left me a message and the tone of her voice did not sound good. So I was nervous to call her back and when I did my heart was pounding waiting for the results and of course her computer was going slower than ever. The worst thing always goes through my mind and I prayer everyday that she will continue do well and her heart rate will continue to stay steady.
So for the results Michelle said that it actually looks better then the last time. She said that there were less pauses, shorter pauses and no premature beats. Her heart rate numbers are... the lowest it dropped was 54 and that was around 1 a.m and the highest was 140 and her average is what they look at the most is 103 so we are pretty happy with those numbers. Thank you all for the prayers I no that it helps out.
