Medical (August 20)

Before the medical....


After the medical....




Still crying....




Crying some more....




The medical today was traumatic.  For everyone involved.  I do not remember it being that way with Grace.  Brandon said it’s because we’ve possibly blocked it out.  :)  There were probably 15-20 other families in that place.  All with screaming, terrified kids.  These kids have just been taken away from everything they’ve ever known, been given to people they’ve never seen, and now people are poking and proding all over them.  Doesn’t help with the whole attachment thingie.  But…in retrospect…thinking about today, those babies are now with families who love them, care about them, and want the very best for them.  They have mommies and daddies who will hug them when they get shots and when they have boo boos.  Something they’ve probably never had before.  And even though it broke my heart to see her cry today (even though I’m not sure if she was crying because she was scared or just because everyone else was screaming) it made my mommies heart glad to be able to comfort her.  She no longer has to worry about no one kissing her boo boos.
So we survived!  Now…pray for a negative tb test!!!!!
