More labs and doctor visits on Wednesday and Friday this week.
Benson and Claire were born with a rare genetic disease in which their liver produces too much oxalate--called primary hyperoxaluria. Claire's condition has progressed much faster than Benson's. She was on dialysis since she was 3 months old and for much of that time, did dialysis 3 hours a day, 6 days a week. She receive a much needed kidney / liver transplant on December 18, 2009. It is expected Benson will eventually need similar transplants.

That is so stinkin' cute! Claire would make a FANTASTIC nurse!! My very favorite nurse during my stay at the hospital on bed rest was a nurse that had recovered from cancer. She knew what it felt like to be a patient -- & she treated her patients very well because of that!! Claire would definitely be able to relate to people like my nurse did. I guess she has a few more years before she'll be choosing a career!! ;) I'm so glad to hear she is doing better! I hope her Dr. visits & labs go well on Wednesday & Friday. Give Benson & Claire a big hug & kiss from us!! Love you guys!!
I bet she will be an amazing nurse someday if she chooses that path. What a fantastic picture.
She can come take care of me. I think that would be awesome. :) What a cutie pie. Glad she is feeling better. Weird stuff. Enjoy your week.
