“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” - Jeremiah 29:11
Just a quick update to say Aria is heaps better today. We had a few dramas yesterday with a few things including another blood transfusion that didn’t get completed due to Aria getting a bit of a rash.
We were quite disappointed to hear we aren’t going home anytime soon. This is turning into a long stay. Aria’s blood sugar is still crazy and we don’t want to go home on insulin really. Maybe early next week
It has been a rough ride but Aria is perky today so that is good. She got a visit from her brand new cousin Trè, we hadn’t met him yet cause he was born with Aria was really sick.

Great to hear Aria is feeling a bit brighter today.
I imagine it is tiring and frustrating and very stressful and extremely worrying having Aria in hospital, you are doing amazing - I really hope there are some wonderful things each day that keep your spirits up. Hope that your leave pass to go home comes really soon!

Glad everything is all headed in the right direction. Sorry it is a long stay, but agreed better to have it all sorted, going home on insulin for adults sux, let alone for such a young child.
I hope you keep reading these msgs as well as the amazing support you guys have, to use it to get through the darkest hours and days!!
Keep your chin up and keep smiling you are amazing parents of a truely amazing little gir.
