Alex has a blood clot..

Well, because of the IV that they put in Alex's leg she has developed a blood clot in that leg. It turned purplish and they're giving her medication for it. It will also require two shots a day for two months when we get her home. They said it won't affect her stay in the hospital, but she would require these shots. They're thinking that they can just teach Deb how to do it because they don't think a nurse could come twice a day to do it for two months. This seems to be a little much, but you never question the doctors. I hate how we have to stick a needle in our baby that much because of something they caused. I guess it happens, but it's frustrating. We'll see how it goes. I have orientation all day tomorrow for the new job and I'm sure it will be long and boring, but that's life. Until tomorrow.. --------
