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.

too cute (again)

Claire had blood work today but I don't know any results yet. Another funny Claire moment from today: I was giving her some milk on the couch and she had her princess cell phone near by. She picked it up and said, "I'm going to call Kally Foote, mommy. What's her number?" "237" I replied. She dialed the numbers and then put the phone to her ear to listen. After a few seconds, she sharply closed the phone and said, "OOPPPS...that was the heparin lab, mommy! Wrong number!"
