Little Bella has captured the hearts of our family and everyone that meets her. We want to share her story with all.

Can we blame it on the heat?

We get a couple of labs done and the phone starts ringing off the hook!

GI wants this.  Pulm wants that.  Of course we have new nurses here that don’t know Bella.  But it does give me the opportunity to say, “See what I mean.  You can’t go from what the patient looks like (the clinical picture) with Bella.  She looks good.”  My sweet girl today:

We have one more trick up our sleeves to avoid IVs.  We are headed downtown tomorrow.  I’m so hoping things settle down.

Oh that looks can be deceiving trick ... she does look good and beautiful as always but these complicated little ones,insides can paint an entirely different story!

Praying for a turn around for sweet Bella.

I have the same "but he looks great" issue with Tomas. Makes me crazy when I KNOW something is up. Darned smiley little creatures that they are!

I know I just started following so please don't think I'm being pushy, but make the docs stay on top of those glucose levels. Tomas had a hypoglycemic seizure a few weeks ago at 31.
