Family

There is nothing more meaningful to Brooke than spending time with her family, so today was a huge dose of happiness for her. Last night, we got to eat supper with Uncle Rick and Aunt Vera. Today, we had lunch with them again, plus Aunt Carol, Ma and Papa. Yay. This afternoon, Briana, Uncle Kirk, Aunt Leslie, Caitlin and Nanny came over. We went out and ate supper and had a belated birthday party for Briana complete with candles and singing. Brooke kept telling everyone it was HER birthday. Silly girl! Once again...no white cake's at Wal-Mart. What's up with that? We had to buy cupcakes instead. It was a fun, family-filled day!

Brooke was more tired today than she has been the past several days and had a restless night. She kicked her legs several times throughout the night which makes me wonder if they hurt some? Aunt Vera said her legs went to sleep a lot after her blood clot hit. I have noticed that with Brooke. Maybe that's it? I researched the Coumadin diet so I will know what Brooke CAN eat. Not much. Everything healthy that she eats is pretty much off limits now. This is going to be challenging. Brooke is already bruised from the shots. I can only imagine how horrific she will look a week from now after 16 sticks. Poor thing!

Thank you for the love and support.
