Mara update






We had the appointment with the specialist at Phoenix Children's. Pretty much this doctor says that the ulcerated hemangioma is healing. I don't see it healing if its still bleeding and scapping over. We are using tons of vaseline at every diaper change and only use wipes on her bottom and a spray bottle for cleaning. Just let me tell you how much I hate vaseline. Told Doug we will give it another week and if its still bleeding I am calling the doctor back and want the laser surgery to remove it. I am concerned with infection as to the location of the hemangioma.

Last evening Airen was so excited to color Easter eggs. We had so much fun. Of course I am not sure who had more fun, Doug or Airen!!! I will include some pictures!!

Not too much else going on .

We have a 90 day review with our support coordinator concerning Airen's services. I'm thankful that we will be having another person here to help coordinate more services. Rene is from the habilitation/respite company and is a big advocate to families.
