Callahan's first infusion..:(

So it happened! I was hoping I wouldn't have to go through this for a long time but..friday I was cliping Callahan's nails and he moved and I cut a tiny peice of skin..he didn't even cry! But unfourtnetly that one little peice of skin was all it took and he bled and bled..for about 7 hours total. Thats from the time it happened till he got his factor (medicine that clots his blood) After 2 hours of non stop bleeding I called the Hemotoligist and he told me to wait another hour or so to see it it would stop..it didn't. So we took him to the hospital. They did good but..the way to give factor is through an IV and im sure everyone knows how hard that is on an infant. SO it took 4 of us to hold him down while they did the IV and they had to do it 4 times! :( Finally he had his infusion and after 35 mins his cut cloted. It was no fun! I now got a glimpse of what childhood is going to be like for him and it makes me sad. But I know he is a strong little man and he will do just fine! I found a really good website about Hemophilia and thought I would share it with everyone
World Federation of Hemophilia

On a good note we all went to Canobie Lake and Boston this weekend we had a lot of fun..Callahan slept through the night for the first time on Saturday! He is getting so big..I will post some pictures for you all to see.
