This morning I met them at the Clinic at Phoenix Children's Hospital and I got to spend the day with Breanna and her mom and dad Rick and Rochelle. They are the most inspirational family you will EVER meet!!! For the 1st hour Brea was awake and coherent and we joked and talked and hung out. That is when we snapped these pictures. She is like a gorgeous porecelan doll!! Then the meds kicked in and we tucked a blanket around her on the couch in the hospital room we were in and she fell into a deep sleep. I am sure last night was COMPLETELY exhausting for her!!!! The nurses kept coming in constantly giving her blood transfusions, platlets, oxygen, meds...you name it.
After Brea fell asleep we talked for hours about everything and anything and I even convinced Rick and Rochelle to go to lunch together while I babysat. It was such an honor for me!!!
I love that girl! Yea, I know I look like I didn't sleep much last night... well, I didn't! I slept from 5-7am. The rest of the night I was up praying, reading my scriptures, typing on my computer and even watching Psych. (really religious, I know... he he). I just wasn't ready to let her go yet. (Not that it is my choice) So you can see why I am so happy to see her in this picture!!! Love you Breanna!!
