Well, we're here....

John, Ollie and I made it safely to Children's Hospital this morning. We checked in around 10:00AM and were escorted to our room shortly after. Ollie was examined by a doctor (not her regular doc-we'll see him tomorrow) and he said she looked great and her chest sounded good too. We've been bombarded with questions and all that "check in" stuff and are now just hanging out. Ollie will be getting her IV sometime in the next 30 minutes. I am dreading this!! The good news is that once they get it in, it should last for the entire 2 weeks. Therefore she will only be getting stuck for the IV once. The bad part is that they have to do bloodwork for the first few days in order to get her dosage just right. This mean drawing blood from her tiny arms. They promised to try and do this as little as possible. More good news is that she will only receive the antibiotics 3 times a day for just 2 hours each time. Thank goodness she will not be hooked up 24/7, allowing us to take her on adventures around the hospital during the time in between treatments. The best news is that once they get her dosage correct and she is doing OK, we can go home! Yay! They informed us that we would be able to administer her drugs in the comfort of our home, checking in with her doc in Andalusia for blood work. We are trying not get too excited cause we could still be here for 7 days (maybe longer) but we could also be here for as little as 3-4. Only time will tell. I will post later today after the IV is in and let you know how little O is doing.
