Slightly Abnormal

We got some of Weslie's blood test results back this afternoon. Two of the factors for blood clotting came back slightly abnormal...meaning she may have a clotting disorder. Her doctor is not completely convinced because the levels werent THAT high. But it is something that we have to watch over the next month - whether she is bruising very easily and if we cant get her blood to clot if she gets a cut.

This is something that they already tested for...and already had gotten normal results for. The doctor isnt sure why the lab tested for these again...but thank goodness that they did or we may have never known.

So we just need some prayers, that maybe it was a false reading...and that it possibly isnt anything at all...and if it is a clotting disorder, that it will be something that can be maintained with medication. We will go back in a month to do another blood draw. For now, we sit and wait, and wonder, and watch for any abnormal clotting signs.

Not the way I wanted to start a long weekend.
