Almost Home • Day +248

Yes... I just used the "H" word... home.

Recap:
Bella's on Day +248 post BMT(Bone Marrow Transplant)
553 days in hospital 
526 days in Ronald McDonald House Calgary.
9+ Surgeries
2 years away from home, since birth.
6 Rare diagnosis. Major one being SCID.
In Beyonce's words, "She's a Survivor!"

>> 1 week until her 2nd birthday! <<

Some then & now photos. 
We had the RMH family photographer take photos for Bella's 1st birthday last year and compared them to our family photos taken just a few weeks ago.

How is Bella • How am I
Bella has been just wonderful, active, happy and energetic! Our last few weeks in the RMH have been great. Bella's sleeping so well and growing. Her physical skills are tremendous! She is now able to hold her feed pump backpack all on her own with the weight of her feed pump and feed inside. At the end of this blog entry I'll post a link to the video of her showing her strength. This is a great progression for her. Now that she can move around and keep her backpack on, during a feed, I don't have to chase her around her play area untangling the feed tube. 
Also! She is down another Gtube feed! Bella is eating enough calories on her own to take off another formula pump feed. So she's down from 4 to 2. We'll sort of 2 and 1/2. She still is not drinking enough to hydrate herself so one of the pump feeds is just water. She needs a lot more water than normal right now because of the types of medications she's on and not having a colon. She is sipping from her sippy cup every once and a while, but not enough to keep her as hydrated as the doctors want her.
Bella still loves walking around the house with all the different push-carts in the playroom. She really utilizes the playroom now and loves it! And if you have been following her Facebook page (Isabella's Mustard Seed) you would of recently seen her newest achievement...getting up to stand from sitting, all on her own! No steps yet, but she's close. 
RMH recently received a massive stuffed teddy and Bella loves climbing on it. It's like her own rock wall. Her and Lyle made a stuffy pit out of all the teddys one day in the tv lounge. She quite enjoyed that. That bear is like the size of 4 adults. Ha ha. 
So... I'm doing ok. Quite often if someone in the house asks me how I am I still give the same annoyed sounding reply, "Stiiiiil Here!" And then they probably scurry away whispering, "She's a real 'ol battleaxe." Which is fine with me, haha. 
I'm worn out. The pictures really show things are going well, and they are, but they deceive people with how I'm actually doing... Exhausted and stressed with a side of anxious. 
This view is what I see the most these days, looking out our window, I think about a lot.
I think about this view changing soon, going back home and what that really means for Bella. This view reminds me daily that I'm running out of time before I need to give up my nurse/mom role to someone I trust with Bella. This view now makes me think about all that must go along with that happening smoothly. 
I think about winter setting in, protecting Bella from viruses, no more walks down the path to the duck pond, and what's really happening with the people in the cars driving by. My gaze often lands on the Foothills hospital and I wonder if all the moms in there are as scared as I was or in better circumstances?  I look down at the snow on the ground and think, wow... I've been here, in this very spot for that many seasons?! I wonder if my home town community is really ready for us to come back. My mind is racing lately, and it's quite tiring. I need to breathe, step back, look at the moon and remember it's all going to work out. But you'd never know all that from the outside looking in. 

Time Lines/Doctors Notes
During our last clinic meeting, Lyle and I had a great conversation with Bella's primary Doctor. He said some things that made me feel really really good. It was relieving to hear. Lyle was able to be at this clinic visit as well since I had quite a break down of exhaustion and needed him here longer than just the weekend.
It was relieving and uplifting to hear Bella's doctor say how much he trusts us. He knows we are not just saying anything to get Bella out of here and risk her safety. He knows we are very keen to Bella's primary needs that only Calgary can handle and we are not going to lie to get her home sooner. It's a good feeling  to have a strong sense of trust between such an educated specialist knowing they have to give-in to a "parent's say" sometimes just because, they are the parents. It make me feel so comforted to have that feeling of Bella's Calgary team remaining her primary team even though we are going back to Saskatchewan. 
This relationship we have makes it easier on them to send Bella home maybe sooner than they really actually want to... Ya, I know right.  But it's good and it'll all be ok. 
So we are set to have an official Home Date meeting at Bella's Dec. 8th clinic check up. This will be when the largest wean of her steroid med is done. And as long as her hgb remains high and no signs of the Hemalytic anemia are around, we are good to choose a home date! That'll be an exciting day. And I'm hoping the next blog post I send will be from our home in Swift Current.
Suprisingly, Bella's immunologist said last week, she did not want us going home until the steroid med was completely done! That would of meant not allowing us to go home until February! I almost had a heart attack. But Bella's primary BMT doc does not agree and still deems it safe that we try to be home before Christmas.  Honestly, I don't care at this point, I just want it safe for Bella to be 6 hours away from her medical team and that's it. 
The issue with the steroid wean and home date planning is that if the anemia comes back and Bella needs a blood transfusion, the Swift Current lab does not have the capability to screen the blood for the specific antibodies. I mean, it takes the Calgary lab 9 hours to prep the blood. So there lies the worry, if the anemia was to come back while we are in Swift Current.  But let's pray against that of course, it will NOT come back. 

So stay tuned to Bella's Facebook page (Isabella's Mustard Seed) for our Home Date announcement. 
I feel like there needs to be a parade down the entire #1 highway for our whole drive home in celebration. Doubtful, but one can dream. 
Bella and dadda play'n race cars in the teen room at the RMH. 

Bella's favorite toys lately are cars, trucks and Lego. She does amazingly well with the Lego pieces and just loves putting them together and taking them apart. I can see the huge improvement in her right wrist/hand. Her wrist doctors agreed and canceled all tests and appointments until spring. They don't feel the need to do the ultrasound either because she may not actually need surgery yet or at all. They feel, given her grand improvements, it's best to give it time and see how much more she can get out of physio, stretches  and use versus intense testing that may or may not confirm surgery as the fix.

Hodgeville, Saskatchewan. 
Look it up! 
This small community is where I really set my roots with my teaching career and learned the most. I taught at Hodgeville school for 5 years before moving to Swift Current. Hodgeville is where I started out with my teaching career and I will never ever forget my amazing students, especially my grade 5/6's who are now grade 8/9's! I miss you all so much. 
So this amazing community holds a Stuff Your Stocking Gift & Craft Show every year now and donate the profits to a local charity or worthy cause. This year, they chose Bella. My Hodgeville family raised $1300 to support Bella and all she needs having to be in Calgary for medical care. I can't thank you all enough for thinking of us. This gift helped lift a huge huge financial weight off our shoulders, it makes me cry still, when I talk about it. 
A million 'thank yous.'

My Purpose Project
I'm so happy I finally have this contact card made! I call it my "Purpose Project" because I've come up with this idea while wanting so badly to make these extremely unique circumstances I've been placed into, purposeful... meaningful. If I can't get a nursing degree or some sort of paid certification out of the medical experiences I have had, haha, I at least need to put myself out there to help other parents in anyway I can, given our similar circumstances. Maybe you haven't spent 300 days in isolation with your child, perhaps only 1 week... If my card, or my connection can lead you to helpful tips, ease your worry by reading a paragraph I wrote or make you laugh from a picture I posted, then I've done my job, I've fulfilled my purpose. I just want to help other medical parents. 
I can't count how many times strangers have stopped me and the conversation sparks from them questioning me about Bella's stroller signs or me actually telling them, she's immune suppressed and why. I hated walking away from those moments and either leaving people totally confused or extremely baffled by what they just heard. I've also had many times where I get bombarded with questions about Bella and I am in no place to even want to see people let alone talk to them. 
My contact card has solved all those problems. 
Quite often I think about the type of person I would have been if my life had gone on with a perfectly healthy daughter, never having seen the inside of a NICU, PICU or Ronald McDonald House. And you know what, I'm happy I didn't turn out to be that person. I'm not happy my daughter has had to go through so much pain, but it bothers me to think I could of been someone who does nothing for those that have. I'm glad I'm not the person oblivious to childhood cancer and the pain a family endures in these circumstances. I'm relived I've learned what real needs are out there and am able to spark compassion in others through my daughters story to help families in hospital. 

A Postcard For Bella's Donor!
Please check out Bella's Facebook page as I have just posted today, how you can contact me or my friend Krista to get a postcard. Once you write your message and mail them to Bella, I will be saving them as keepsakes for Bella and sharing them with her Bone Marrow Donor when we finally get to meet her, come 2017. 
This is truly a thoughtful idea, thank you Krista. 

Bella's Birthday! 
She's turning 2 on December 6th, 2015.
Incase you missed the invite, there it is! 
I'm so excited for what I have planned for her birthday. It's going to be easy and fun. The details are on the invite and I'll post reminders closer to next Sunday, again on Bella's Facebook page. But it's basically a chance for anyone to come and say "hi" before we leave Calgary and see Bella. 
If you choose, please feel free to make a donation to the Ronald McDonald House  Southern and Central Alberta in Bella's name in lieu of gifts. If you'd like to send Bella a birthday card, you can mail it to: 
Bella Thomson
Room 208
Ronald McDonald House
111 West Campus Pl NW
Calgary, AB
Canada
T3B 2R6

I'm so so so excited that Bella will be receiving an Icing Smiles cake for her 2nd birthday! It's going to be amazing! If you can, please look up Icing Smiles Canada, see if you can help support their cause in any way. They have volunteer bakers make extremely detailed dream cakes for children in hospital or in medical circumstances. 
I'm also setting up a table outside the party room with a memory book for Bella as a keepsake. I have a Polaroid camera ready for selfies! Even if you can just stop by to write a note in Bella's memory book and take a selfie, that would be wonderful. And if you have time for coffee and cake, that's great too! 
The kind staff of the resource center at ACH (Alberta's Children's Hospital) have allowed us to use a party room for free! This is so needed since we would not be allowed to have a birthday party/farewell party like this at the RMH. It could not happen because everyone walking through the RMH doors must be screened to keep all the families inside safe. Of course we don't want you stopping by Bella's party either of you are sick, but at least I'll have a table set up outside the party room as well! 
We hope many of you in or close to Calgary can come by on Bella's birthday. 

Videos! 
I have added 3 new helpful videos to my YouTube channel Hospital Mom Hacks! Please check them out and share them if they help you. They are helpful tips on: prolonging use of med syringes, my purpose project and preventing gtube feed leaks. 

I may start to post more videos on my Instagram account that are more about Bella and save the medical tips for my YouTube channel. You can follow me on Instagram @kylact. I recently posted a hilarious video of Bella dancing...well, twerking to be exact. Lol

Here's a link to the video I talked about earlier in this post. It's titled "Stronger Every Day." It shows Bella and all 14lbs of her able to keep a backpack on with the weight of a pump and her feed while sitting and standing up! 

Stayed tuned to Shaw Global Calgary on December 2nd! Bella and I were interviewed as a family of the house (RMH) and the segment will be airing on December 2nd! 

Next blog post, we will be HOME!
Swift Current, are you ready???

Surgery #9 and More/Day +226 Post BMT

Recap:
-Bella is 23 months old today!
-She has spent 553 days in hospital from birth.
-We are 1 month away from a 2 year anniversary of NOT being HOME YET.
-We are currently on day 504 in the Ronald McDonald House in Calgary, AB
- Hoping we are home before Christmas. 
I have lots of updates from the past 2 weeks, but I am going to try and keep this blog post brief since I have had a request to keep them shorter (ahem ahem, Lyle...). I haven't been doing the daily diary posts this time as I have had to be in and out of clinic and the hospital unit with Bella has proven to make me quite tired in the evenings and I am usually crashing at 8pm these days, with Bella. haha  But! If I am too brief with something and you would like to ask me questions that would be totally fine with me. I am in a good place for that these days. So much is happening with Bella that often I leave out information that in turn confuses people. But I am in a good place these days to answer many questions. And of course, you all know how badly I want to help other medical parents. So please follow me on facebook or email me, which ever you like. I don't update the same way in every social media outlet, I keep Bella's updates different and unique in all of them. Here are my social media contacts if you wish to follow Bella and I through other means:

Bella has been doing really well. She is talking up a storm, wow. I have had so many compliments lately about how well she speaks and how much she talks. I love love love it. Some times she rambles on what sounds like 4 sentances in a row! And she can make clear 3-4 words sentances right now. Especially when requesting food or cartoons. My favorite is when she says, "Momma apples ya?" She's still loveing apples. 
Bella is still doing wonderful with her walking with the push cart. She is faster now and can turn the cart on her own when she gets stuck. Its also quite cute to here her say, "I'm Stuck!" when she runs into something. I've tried multiple times to coax her into walking on her own but she often stands, balances, gets excited and shouts, "No Hands!" and then plops down on her butt. I only want to try on weekends now, when Lyles here. I rather him here for her first steps unassisted. Its kinda funny though since he has said even if Bella does start walking...just don't tell me. As funny as that would be, I'd be too excited not to tell him. But we will see what this weekend brings...maybe her first steps!
Although Bella's eating is going very well, her drinking still is not. Even after needing to be NPO (no food or drink) for 24 hours because of her recent surgery, she suprisingly still did not drink, she only ate.  I'm still trying suggestions from her OT and SLP but we are stuck. I really hope she gains the desire to drink soon. She definetly needs her Gtube so I can tube feed her all the nutrients she needs from her formula. But if she was drinking what she needed to, she would not need the gtube. 
Bella had another wonderful visit with Grandma Davis. Bella loves grandma and snuggles grandma and does not mind at all now, if momma is away while she hangs out with grandma. I think she also knows how well grandma takes care of her doggy Jersey until we can come home. 
That there folks is a year worth of Bellas beads from the Beads of Courage Program. From Oct. 15th, 2014 - Oct. 24th, 2015.  Bellas first string of beads from Dec. 8th, 2013- Sept. 8th 2014 is in a glass vase at our home. The way I have chosen to use her beads is having every bead represent every poke, procedure and event in chronological order. Like a story from beggining to end. I'm also very excited for how I am planning to display them when we are done this hospital stay. My dad came up with a sweet idea that will be wonderful! 
Surgery #9
To be honest this could actually be suregy #10 or #11, I actually would have to look back in Bellas Bead Journal to be absolutely sure, but I'm pretty sure its #9. She's had a few surgeries for central lines both in Saskatoon and Calgary that I can't remember her exact total number of surgeries but its 9 for sure.
 Bella had her gtube revised to a Mickey Button and a skin biopsy for genetics. The surgery went very well and Bella was fully recovered by the next morning. With all the risks that come with surgeries and anesthetic, I thank God for is protection over her. It's truly amazing what she has been through.
 Its funny, I still remember the way I was for Bella's first surgery. I remember not being scared one bit. I remember the surgeon actually commenting on my poise. If I could describe why,  it would be to say, "There's no reason to be scared." There's just no choice, you just be brave and secure, not naive, but have faith filled hope and thats it. God is protecting her and I don't doubt that. I have faith every time and I choose to show no fear, especially for her, for my Bella. 
The Cancelled Part
Bella is no longer getting the ivad port line under her skin. She will remain with her double lumin broviak. It is bittersweet. The port meant less blood work for Bella and a step towards going home. Because of the Hemalytic anemia, blood work has had to be way too often and that just can not happen with a port. A port is meant to be accessed once or twice a month, not once or twice a day, like her Broviak can and is right now. Sadly this means I continue to wrap her up in saran wrap for every bath and she can not going swimming yet. The good news is she can still go home with her Broviak and as long as it remains very clean and NOT infected, she can just keep it as long as possible. 
The MRI and Nerve Conduction test for Bella's wrist was cancelled. The new rules in the hospital are that they do not transport patients while under anestheitc. The MRI is on the 1st floor and the OR is on the 3rd floor.  Regardless Bella's wrist doctors have decided an ultrasound of Bella's wrist may prove to be more effective anyway, when determining what sort of nerve damage Bella has there. The MRI would of actually been most likely too long with unconclusive results anyway. They thought even if it took an hour to follow her nerves through the MRI, it may not actually show them what they need and there for, not worth the risk of Bella being under for a solid hour. 
The Skin Biopsy
Bellas Geneticist wanted the skin biopsy as back up. They had figured there was enough of her "old blood" (her blood before transplant) saved in the lab in Winnipeg but a skin biopsy now would prove as back up just incase. Genetics amazes me, its crazy science. Its a crazy science that Lyle and I need in order to have a second child, SCID free. 
A Saskatchewan Resident on Bella's Case in Alberta!
At first I snickered and rubbed my hands together like Dr.Evil, threw my head back and laughed..."BUahahaha!! I will get you my precious." lol And then I told myself, "Self...be nice." 
I thought, I better not hurt her too bad, I need her now, as a tool to advocated for SCID screening in Saskatchewan and the awareness of the mistakes Bella endured in the Saskatoon hospital. 
She was a Resident doctor working with Bella in Saskatoon, so of all people, she can see the "then and now" and hopefully help me DO something about it.  If anyone can help me out, whats most important through all of this is medical teams realizing that if SCID screening was in place in Saskatchewan when Bella was born, she would not of had to spend so long in hospital and go through all that she had that 1st year. 2 years away from home could have only been 6-9 months if she was diagnosed at birth. If anything, I want to prevent this from happening to another Saskatchewan family. It's a miracle Bella survived 11 months before she was diagnosed. IF she had died before then, we would have never known the real reason why. 
So instead of grilling this resident on the horror of our 8 months in Saskatoon, I knew I needed her on board with what I needed her help with. Thankfully we have had wonderful converstaions and she is more than willing to help me with all of this, as an asset knowing Bella's Saskatoon history. 

The hard part was swallowing my anger. The second that Bella's BMT doctor "introduced" me to her in the hallway, a few weeks ago... I immedietly knew who she was. A memory from this resident working with Bella in Saskatoon is burned in my brain...because it was ruthless. I have great assumption that we are but a spec of memory to her, as I had to remind her about quite a lot of Bella's history and WHY she needed a Bone Marrow Transplant. 

The Memory 
It was May 2014, about a month before we came to Calgary the first time, thinking Bella's only issues were with her bowels and the effects of having Hirschprungs Disease. This memory happned after 3 needless, uneffective bowel surgeries and a Septic Shock episode that almost killed her in April 2014. We are now in a room on the PEDS ward, the Saskatoon surgeon was stumped after the 3rd bowel surgery did not fix Bella. My daughter was so destended her abdomen looked like Jupiter, she had a tube down her nose and throat sucking anything out of her stomach so she wouldn't vomit repeatedly as they still assumed she had a blockage somewhere that they couldnt find...
And this resident walks in before daily rounds that day. 
Once again I'm diligently standing at my daughter's crib side trying to hold her, comfort her while hooked to countless tubes and lines. Confused and scared and tired I try to go over every possible next step they could try, with the resident. Bagging her to think of something they haven't thought of yet that could work. 
The convo got heated as she could not answer my questions and my knowledge at that time proved to be greater than hers so I could tell she started to become annoyed  with me. 
Finally she abruptly said 7 words that left me in shock and despair...
"There is no magic pill for Bella!"
And she walked out. 

Guess what lady!!! There was, and its called a Bone Marrow Transplant!! 

Aaaand BOOM goes the dynamite. 

I'd give anything to rub that in her face, but I can't, that's not me. Like I said, I need her alive...hahaha, to help me advocate for SCID screeing in Saskatchewan. 

Wow...I'm not following Lyle's "make the posts shorter" request at all. ha ha Sorry hunny. I'm sure everyone's grabbed their glass of wine by now to pit in for the remainder of this post. :) 

The joy of "A Year Ago" on Facebook. This came accross my Facebook memory, a post I made a year ago. This was about a month before I thought of starting a blog to document our medical journey in hospital. It was also before I thought of starting my YouTube channel to help other parents with little ones in hospital.  I remember just having bits of poetry of words come to me and I just felt others needed to hear it. And if I didn't write it down, they would pass before I could remember them.
I can't tell you how much relief I feel with finally using these outlets. The blog, Bella's page, my channel all make me feel much more purposeful. Like I've said before, I could cry, whine and wail about the hardship and mistakes my daughter has had to endure...OR I could use my writing skills to get as much info out there as I can, to help others and prevent pain for others. As long as I am writing, I know I am helping someone and that matters. 
I sometimes wish I would of known to start writing like this since the first step into hospital care for Bella. But I couldn't of ever known. That first year was month by month, thinking we were going home every other week. I was in no place to write like I am now. I've actually started my ideas for a book. Yes, I am writing a book. Who of all of you would buy it?!? 
I've found a way to remember and write about as much as I can from our first year in hospital and this second year. It's going to be great, but definetly an ongoing project for me, for now. So stay tuned. 
Timeline Update/ Overcoming Hemalytic Anemia
In a nut shell, the Hemalytic Anemia that Bella is battling has set us back at least 5 weeks from a going home date. The 1st week of trying steroids and the 4 doses of the Ritux med that takes 4 weeks. Not to mention the daily blood work. Good news: Bellas hgb is starting to stabalize above 80! That means the $10 000 Ritux med is working and with the support of the steroids is stabalizing Bella's hgb. Her last dose of Ritux is this coming Monday where Bella will have to be in a clinic room for the 6 hour infusion of the med. It will be her last infisuion and then they begin to ween the steroids off. 
Bella developed these bumps on the tops of her hands and feet after the 2nd dose of Ritux. They have since gone away and her doctors are not worried as she is covered on many profolactic meds right now. They do speculate that the bumps may be a reaction to the Ritux med but they arn't certain

Bella's Calgary BMT team has spoken with the team in New Castle, England who is aware of Bella's case. They have given our Calgary team great insight and support. They have told us they have actually seen this before in some SCID patients. They have also said that every patient has responded differently meaning they arn't sure if the Hemalytic Anemia will take a while to fix or if this last dose of Ritux will be it. Its looking good for Bella seeing as she is not on her last dose of this med yet and already showing stability above 80 this week. 

Like our Immunologist Dr. Wright has always said, we hope to be home before Christmas. I'm still grieving from the mentions of us being home by the end of October.

Bella's Immunizations Timeline
So the Ritux med is not just a set back for a going home date but also a set back for Bella's Immune System to have a chance to show us its working on its own. The BMT med Cyclospoirn that Bella is being weened off of takes about 3 months to get out of her system. So for example, until that med is out of her system we don't see what Bella's Immune System can do on its own, there for we can't test it yet, therefore no immunizations for her yet, therefore keep her on protective isolation... ugh. 
Well, this Ritux med takes longer to get out of her system, like 6-8 months longer. This was very frustrating news. Both of these medications are what supress Bellas Immune System right now and make her vulnerable and unable to fight viruses yet. So we wait. 
The cyclo med should be out of her system by February 2016. The Ritux med should be out of her system hopefully by May 2016. So its really another 3 month set back in terms of testing Bella's Immune System and for example, allowing her to play with friends and be around children. 
So hopefully in Spring 2016 Bella's counts show that her Immune system is ready to be tested and then we can start her Immunizations and begin leading more of a normal life by seeing friends and family more often. She will be 2 1/2 years old by the time we start her immunizations. 

So given that information, all the more reason to remind everyone, that for those who want to visit Bella between now and well...the rest of her life, you must have the flu shot. 
A friend of mine wrote this on facebook and I appreciate it very much. She makes the reasoning clear for people that question the flu shot. 
Also, the reason why myself and anyone around Bella can NOT have the nasal spray version is because the spray is a live virus that is actually contagious for 10-14 days post spray. Thankfully I can get my flu shot at the Ronald McDonald House for free as they have a clinic for the families here. And they do not allow the nasal spray in the house here. 

1 Month Until Her 2nd Birthday
Oh boyee... So she's 2 years old in one month. I want so badly for this to be a celebration for her at our home but that option is not looking so hot. I get a bit of anxiety around planning her birthday. I want for it to be such an amazing experiece for her because she has had to live in hospital for 2 years but at the same time she's 2 and well, not allowed to be around crowds of people or other children. I have a few ideas in mind for December 6th 2015, that I'm working on. One of which being a come and go celebration where I book a room at the hospital. I like this because then all of our Calgary friends and family can stop by and see us and see her before we go home to Saskatchewan. As well as her nurses and medical teams from Unit 1, 2 and 4 in ACH. 
I'll keep thinking on this and keep everyone posted on the plans we decide on. Either way I know a lot of friends and family will show her love on this day, so I'm not worried about that happening. :) 
Bedtime Stories with Daddy

So I'll leave you all with a link to a video I posted on my YouTube Channel of Bella and Lyle enjoying some reading and singing before bedtime. Bella's singing almost melted my heart just as much as her giggles in the "apple" video. She absolutly loves animals and knows so so many of them and the sounds they make. And like she shows in the video, she knows when to chime in on her part of singing during Old McDonald's "EI EI Oh" song.  
With a "Baa Baa" here and a "Baa Baa" there, goodnight everyone, and thank you for following our story.
