I wanted to start by saying, thank you to all those that comment on our blog. I always really look forward to reading them and find them very encouraging.
Ellie started a three day course of steroids today and gets to keep her morphine to try and counter act the ‘roid rage’. Better news is she was able to build up some blood herself so no transfusion.
Ellie’s cannula is still looking good, although I haven’t seen one taped down quite as well as hers was today. Weigh-in tonight, they are expecting a loss as she was retaining quite a bit of fluid last time she was weighed.
Hannah had a nice visit with her sister after missing her yesterday. Just a Mummy and Ellie day tomorrow.

Yes, no snorkel gives us all a good look at her perfect shaped head and sweet little face. Well done, Ellie on building up your own blood level – Miss Feisty does it again! Love the fact that it takes an entire roll of tape to stop her removing her cannula – Deb and Matt, she is so going to be the defiant , backchatting teenager, you do realise.
Give E a big high five from us tomorrow, Debs and hugs to the whole family xo
