Clinic

Thursday Makenzie had clinic, they needed so much blood because she has had diarrhea for over two weeks now that they wanted to cover all there bases and get different kinds of tests to see if she has any viruses that are hiding around in her. They also took a stool sample to check that also. Echo took forever as usual. We finally got in and her echo looks good her heart sounds great, so far a healthy girl. Her prograf level came back and it is right on target for the first time in a while so we won't need to go back until next month. Luckily her weight maintained and she actually gained a few ounces 26.4 pounds even with all the diarrhea I was for sure she would have lost some weight. Way to go skinny Minni. Just not really looking for winter time again with all the viruses going around and the swine flu. We just need to keep her locked up in the house. She can be BUBBLE girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A little update

Well it has been a while since I have updated on Makenzie so here goes. She had an echo done a few weeks ago and all looks well. She is doing really well so far, she is gaining weight she is up to 26 pounds, getting big slowly but surely she is getting up there. Her prograf level is still not stabilizing it is a little high so they lowered her dose to .56, we get to go back to PCH this week to get her blood drawn again.
Now for the dental update she went to the dentist a few months ago and I told them i was concerned about a black spot on her tooth, so they made an appointment to get it fixed. We went to PCH on the 6th and they put her out and took her to the OR room which sounds pretty severe for a tooth but she would not even let the dentist look at her. I was so scared when they took her because of her heart and the rejection she got over this year. To be honest I cried when they came and talked to me the first time to let me no what they are going to do before they came and got her, but 35 min later they were done and she was coming out of the anesthetic crying for mommy. They put a crown on her tooth and filled another. And life goes on
