Thanks to Alyssa and Mackenzie

Eden had a great time delivering these treats to her doctors and nurses at her latest clinic visit.

Here's how the appointment went (this is also my excuse to let you in on how Eden is spending two mornings a week!):

First, Eden gets her blood drawn (we have to be there when the lab doors open at 7:00am.... sooo early for a girl who likes her sleep!) Here, we are in the Nemo decorated room - Eden's personal favorite.

After offering our thanks with bread and brownies to these wonderful people that so quickly and cheerfully take our kiddo's blood, we were off to the Heart Institute. This is when we take medicine, try to eat some breakfast and wait a bit.

Next: Into the heart clinic for... vitals

Then: Echocardiogram and EKG

********

And finally: a visit with the nurse coordinators

(here you see Jilayne and DeDe)

We handed over our "gratitude grub" and were almost done. The last, and maybe the most important visit of the day, was back to the CICU. After all, we were thanking the individuals who allowed us this miracle, and who better than the Intensive Care nurses who cared for us all at our worst.

Oh Gillian, with grace and ease you entered our crazy lives. We walked into your shift just an hour after learning a heart was available for Eden. You treated us as though we entered a luncheon given in our honor. We are so grateful for your many talents and abundance of love. The same goes to Kim, Suzette and all the other nurses that touched Eden with their healing hands.

Enjoy the treats... Feel the love.
