Happy December 1st!
We had a long day at a shunt study for Annelise. This was a new procedure for us, so it's always a little unnerving to not know what exactly to expect. We had a 2 part appointment, and were there from 9:45am until after 3pm. It was supposed to be much quicker.... But our neurosurgeon got called to an emergency surgery, so we had to wait to get started. A different neurosurgeon came to tap Annelise's shunt. New doctors can be unnerving too because... "Who are you?".... But the new-to-us neurosurgeon ended up being lovely, explained things before she did them, and we were grateful to finally get started on the imaging. Also grateful that we weren't the ones dealing with an emergency surgery this time! I hope that kid is doing great now.
All seems to be well with Annelise's shunt! Meaning no blockages we're observed, seems like it is working! We will know more officially when we hear from the doctor, probably not until next week.
We were so happy to be home finally at the end of the day! We celebrated with Door Dashed dinner, and day 1 of our new advent blocks. Each day of December until Christmas, we'll read a different story from the Bible that leads up to Christmas, and the celebration of Jesus' birth. The blocks have pictures on them to represent what
Bible passage was about for that day, and they also have a letter to spell out a message when we get tobthe end. Annelise looked so cute checking out the pictures in her story Bible.🥰
