San Francisco - Last Installment

A Day at the Beach


Eden practicing her "California driving" ... i.e. hands-free.



The day started out quite foggy (and a little disappointing).




But, thankfully, Eden doesn't know the difference. She enjoyed the sand on her feet, but kept her distance from the water.

The sun finally shone through with a nice happy ending.

We ended our day with fish tacos and ice cream... yum!


Goodbye California, we'll be back!



We had a great trip and are thankful to Shawn and Holli for the excuse to get away.

Unfortunately, once we got home life changed dramatically. Brian was back to long days at work, me to my thesis, and Eden quickly showed sings of another illness.

Most concerning was Eden's illness, of course. Those pictures of her smiling on the beach were the last we saw for a couple of days. The very next morning we took her to the transplant team to be sure her symptoms weren't rejection related. Luckily, that was ruled out. This week we made a visit to the pediatrician for more information. Not strep throat, just another nasty virus. She is not sleeping well, coughing, tossing and turning, and showing up at our bedside at all hours of the night. We all need some sleep!



I know, I know... this too will pass.
