Medical Update:

Thank Goodness Bella has a double lumen broviak central line so no more pokes for blood work. Sewing this line in her chest was 1 of 5 different procedures done in her most recent surgery (7th surgery) which was on Dec. 3rd, 2014.

So Bella's HLA typing has begun. They need to take a large amount of blood from her so in this pic she is receiving a blood transfusion. (Her 7th blood transfusion since she was born.)

So Thank You to all of you that give blood!!!

The HLA typing is the beginning of the BMT process. 

She also received more Bday presents from ChildLife and the Unit 2 staff. :)

Her beautiful headband was knit by one of the generous moms staying at the Ronald McDonald House.
