Pictures and quick updates





Avarie has the best luck at games. She wins almost every time and we don't even let her or make it easier, she is just really lucky, especially at Candyland. She is playing in these pics against Grandpa Foushee and she beat him every time. Grandpa had never played Candyland before, how you can have 8 kids and never have played Candyland! Guess he was to busy trying to feed us. It couldn't have been cheap raising 8 kids, so I'll give him a break.
The other pictures are of the transplant. The bag is her stem cells. It was a very small bag and the second pictures is of her asleep with the cells going in through her PIC in her arm. You can see the cords above her head going down into her arm. That is about as exciting as the transplant got, but I wanted everyone to be able to see.
Everything is still going really well. She still has the cough, but it hasn't gotten to bad. She was a little wheezy this morning, but seems fine today. Just keeping an eye on it. We don't really expect any changes for at least 3-7 more days, somewhere in that range. We're just hanging out and doing lots of puzzles and games and watching a lot of movies and definitely lots of Polly Pockets.
