It\u2019s Monday.\u00a0 <\/span>Friday was the date of the MRI.\u00a0 <\/span>Dana\u2019s still hot!\u00a0 <\/span>About the MRI too.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Chloe, Dana, Barb and I were at the hospital in plenty of time and, although Chloe was a bit nervous, she went on with it knowing Dana would be in there with her this time.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So, Chloe in a gown and Dana in scrubs the MRI nurse placed Chloe in position and said, okay, we\u2019ll do about 30 minutes and then bring you out and use a little butterfly.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Both Dana and Chloe knew what that meant, even though no one said anything about an invasive procedure for today.\u00a0 <\/span>They wanted to inject dye to get a contrast look at the site.\u00a0 <\/span>With some hesitation they proceeded.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Halfway through they tried the needle in Chloe\u2019s arm.\u00a0 <\/span>The vein wouldn\u2019t accept it so they went to the other arm. \u00a0<\/span>Same thing happened there.\u00a0 <\/span>Then they talked Dana into letting them try the hand.\u00a0 <\/span>Chloe had it by then.\u00a0 <\/span>She let out a yell and Dana pulled the plug on the day.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Chloe was completely traumatized by the experience and Dana was livid.\u00a0 <\/span>She has let everyone in the offices know how she feels about them not preparing her for an invasive procedure.\u00a0 <\/span>If they had then we would have opted for sedation, which is exactly what we will now have to go back for on Nov. 7th<\/sup>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If there is a good part to all this it is that they have part of the MRI completed.\u00a0 <\/span>Now we just have to calm Chloe down enough to get her back there.\u00a0 <\/span>She said she NEVER wants to go back there.\u00a0 <\/span>As good as she is a patient she knows when enough is enough.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

However, we will be back there.\u00a0 <\/span>We know this is what is needed to assure that the tumor has left the building.\u00a0 <\/span>The one stick rule is going to be in place so they better get it right the first time or I wouldn\u2019t want to be in their smock.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For now then, Chloe is back bouncing around being a typical nine year old.\u00a0 <\/span>Other than a cold she is doing very well and looks just better than anytime in the past that I\u2019ve known her.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Keep the high watch for us.\u00a0 <\/span>We know we are blessed by all of you.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
