It’s been a rough morning!

It’s been a rough morning!

We needed to find out what type of port she had - power port or not. This was necessary because some of the imagining machines use machine pumped contrast dye. If you don’t have a power port then you don’t want to use the machine pumped dye because the pressure used could blow your port/line. Well, wouldn’t you know it…Olivia doesn’t have a power port so she had to get an IV. She was not at all happy about this. CT and PET are finally done. MRI will be done hopefully later today.

Olivia’s already helping future cancer kids - our CT team spoke to our affiliate office in Charlotte and asked them to start requesting power ports going forward so they don’t have to do IV’s! Olivia was super happy about that!

Everyone is loving her wearable llama 🦙 blanket (appropriately named Llu Llu) 😂

Still a lot more to do today but here’s our midday update!
