Officially Well

So this morning Emma went to her pedi for her 2nd follow-up appointment to check her white cells, red cells & platetlet counts & they were all back to normal. She is officially well. Now the trick is how long can we keep her that way.

While there, Dr. K suggested she get her flu vaccine since they had plenty in stock so Emma got her 1st flu mist. In the past she has only gotten the shot but since they had already stuck her to draw labs we thought we would try the mist. Plus Dr. K said studies now show the mist is more effective on children & the shot is more effective for adults. We will see how it goes.

Chris & I plan on getting our within the next week as part of prepping for the arrival of the baby. Here's to hoping for a flu-free household this winter.

Our kids HATED the flu mist. Brooks was so glad to get the shot (he does great with it). Kate is terrible with either. We got our shots last week!
