CT Scan and Injection

May 8, 2019Nik & Leah

Well after a very nice break we were back today, 5/8/19 for Reba’s day 1 of 2 scans.

Today consisted of a chest CT scan, IV start, and MIBG injection. Because Reba has had reaction to this injection in the past we pre-medicated her with prednisone 13, 7 and 1 hours before the injection. Also one hour before the injection we gave her Benadryl.

The injection went smoothly, big sigh of relief. We always get nervous.

Tomorrow will be bone marrow aspirates (her yearly), MIBG scan and MRI scan. It will be a long day under anesthesia tomorrow.

Thank you for your well wishes, prayers, and intentions for continued stability or even shrinkage! ❤️

Zoe stayed by Reba’s side and was a great big sister, as always.

Shane loves playing with his sisters, he doesn’t care where.

During the nuclear Med injection there was a fire alarm…. it was really loud so they provided these headphones for Shane to wear. They squeezed his cheeks together😂

So, is Reba as old now as Zoe was when this whole thing started? Amazing! And now with Shane (are Chipmunk Cheeks!) coming along as well. Love to you all!
