I was just pleased she did it in one shot, using a butterfly needle - that's some talent if you ask me. She was worried at first when I told her she wouldn't be able to stick me with anything larger than the butterfly - said she'd have to stick me several times to get all the blood - but in the end, I managed to make it happen (with her help) with just the one stick. I was literally hanging off the front of the chair with my arm almost on the floor by the last one...but she was a trooper and just sat down right on the floor and kept going! Fun was had by all. Twelve.

(delete this if I say too much - want to respect privacy of course). I wish I had a magic wand to fix all the kidney issues for the people I love (and the people THEY love). My gosh.
