I would be fired!

If I were paid to blog I would be fired. But I think what my absence means is that Selene has been doing so great and has been such a normal kid that other than the three minutes a night when she gets a shot that I completely forget that I have updates to give.

But that said, we are moving forward. This week we met our transplant doctor. He was smart, calm, reassuring while reminding us there are risks. Her young age and health are her biggest assets right now for a successful outcome. We also got to see the match results for her and Ainsley. It was amazing seeing those identical numbers, one after another.

I've been doing so much reading and researching that it's all become real and scary and not all at the same time. I just realized that she'll have a port in and that I'll need to clean it and flush it at home for weeks. So that is overwhelming and terrifying to think of. That she'll be attached to IVs, and tubes for weeks. But we will get through it.

She continues to celebrate her 2nd birthday with lots of presents and sweet treats and she loves being "twoooo."

More to come sooner than last time!
