Wait it out...

Aubrey and I went to her hematologist yesterday. We waited 2 hours to be seen, but Aubrey was so good about it. She just played. The appt was two fold: her genetic testing results and her last MRI results. Her genetic testing was normal except one value. This gene could increase her likelihood to clot in situations with added factors (trauma, dehydration, prolong immobility, etc). This mutation in the gene will not cause spontaneous blood clots. Neither will it affect the current clot in her head. The last MRI showed the brain clot stable, but not resolving as quickly as Jared and I would prefer. The doctor said it could be up to 6 months to a year for the clot to completely resolve. We are almost on month 4 now. So we have another MRI in a couple of months for a 6 month look at the clot. Aubs is potty training now and going to daycare. She is so active and smart. She truly is a miracle. Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers...they mean the world. Ultrasound for the new baby next week for the 20 week check-up. Wish us luck!
