February

Hannah was scheduled for her sedation appointment early on Friday morning (Valentine's Day). This was the week where the second bad ice/snow storm came through Atlanta. Eric and I didn't know if we would be able to make it up to Atlanta because of the weather. Because her appointment was supposed to be so early on Friday (and we don't think it's fair to wake her up extra early to ride 3 1/2 hours without eating and drinking before being sedated), we drove up on Thursday. We took Eric's truck, which has 4-wheel drive, in case we ran into any snow/ice. As we passed the Atlanta airport, the hospital called and said that her sedation was cancelled because they wanted to make sure that all the families could safely get to the hospital. They changed her appointment to a regular chemo appointment and moved it to Friday afternoon. This left us all of Friday morning with nothing to do. Wonderful! There was still a little bit of snow on the ground (more than Hannah had ever seen) and we got a chance to let her play in it. She had a great time!

Hannah was amazed at how much snow was piled up in the parking lots!


Attempting to make a snow angel. There wasn't enough snow for this. 

Trying to sled - not enough snow or a big enough hill. 


Hannah did the best she's ever done with her pokes this time! We were so proud of her! The nurses did a great job making Valentine's Day special and had treats and toys for her.

We ran into these guys after her appointment. They are the hospital's mascots. Their names are Hope and Will.
