Quick update

Thanks for praying for Rylie. Her lumbar puncture and PE tube went well yesterday, and the anesthesiologist didn't even intubate her! Good news!

Rylie's ear has been bleeding all night. Lyle and I had to get up and change the cotton ball in her ear every other hour or so. Some bleeding is normal, but the amount seems uncommon. I talked with the on-call doctor twice last night and the BMT on-call doctor once. We're going back into the ENT clinic this morning to make sure there aren't any clotting issues. Fortunately, as far as we can tell Rylie hasn't been having any pain with the bleeding.  Rylie also has her final BMT clinic visit in Minnesota this morning. We will resume clinic visits and lab work in Denver on Wednesday.  

Hope everyone is having a great Friday.

Proverbs 3:5–8

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones."
