A Most Unusual Birthday

Mail Call for the Birthday Boy!

All good gifts, including some TPN with lipids!

First, we get dressed for a clinic appointment

Then we go to the clinic, and get gifts!

Then we come home and open a couple of presents before lunch

Later we have ice cream, a big cookie, and many more gifts

Sweet!

Jacob: Lego Maniac

Jacob gets his transplant tomorrow, June 14, 2012

His primary diagnosis is Fanconi anemia

His secondary diagnosis is LEGO mania

Being hospitalized for weeks/months can get pretty old very quickly. That's when it helps to love building stuff with Lego blocks. Susan and Jacob followed the 50 page instruction book and the result was a sweet batmobile. Later, they made Two Face's car, other bank robbing bad guys, and many other things from the world of Batman Moments later, the wonder of the imagination of an 8 year old boy was unleashed. Way more fun than whining about pain and nausea!
