So Jeremy and I went to bleeder camp two weeks ago (yay Camp Hot-to-Clot!!!!) and I finally tried sticking him for the first time (venipuncture, that is).

I'm so happy - I no longer feel like such a bleeder mom failure

My mom and son were in a car accident in the middle of April, and things have been a little crazy ever since.

Always, I'm gonna be the parent of a teenager soon. God, I'm old.

My son has been dealing with what I thought was a muscle bleed for a little over a week now. Turns out that whatever bleeding may have occurred is now resolved (thanks to infusing the living crap out of him), but the pain from the bleed was at some point replaced with the pain of keeping the muscle immobilized for too long. Who knew you could have such severe pain from keeping an injury still for too long? Anyways, I took him into the HTC last week, and on our way out after finishing up, my son's

Our HTC had a dinner last night to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of our parent group, and I was talking to a couple of moms and the nurse from our adult center about my inability to prepare any kind of meat other than chicken. To which my nurse said, "If you can stick a port, you can cook a roast."
Encouragement - bleeder style.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
