Isabela spent the entire day at the hospital today, along with her grandmother, grandfather and me. Can you believe that we had to tear her away?! Yes, Texas Childrens Hospital rocks and Isabela thinks it's one for the best places on earth. Well....it doesn't hurt that she has many many friends there that love her. She came away with many gifts and her favorite, stickers!
It seems like isolation for the past 8 weeks worked! Honestly, I was advised to isolate her for 2-3 weeks, but we wanted to make sure to go that extra mile for her, although it was torture on her and everyone else involved. But to hear that her labs looked perfect and that she looked perfect, was worth it. Although, they are a bit skeptical about her allergies, I got the impression that it wouldn't be enough to worry about. Isabela does have a formal diagnosis for dust allergy (me too!). Spring is not our friend.
Isabela is ready, in more ways than you can imagine. She's ready to meet Chuck E. Cheese, play in a restaurant's playground, drink out of her school's water fountain and visit Minnie Mouse on what would be her very first airplane ride! This is something we have been planning for about 4 years. So, Fontan Surgery...here we come!
