Alan got to hold him while the phlebotomist drew his blood. It was some kind of wrestling hold so he wouldn't turn his head. She said Isaac had "gorgeous" veins. He cried for a bit, but it was over quickly. He looked up at the TV screen when she was done and started laughing at the cartoon that was on. She said that was why she loved working with kids, they get over things so quickly.
Afterwards we went to Grandma and Grandpa Barnes' home and Grandma made us a delicious dinner. We relaxed for a bit and tried to calm our nerves. Great-Grandpa Barnes was there and he shared his walker with Isaac. We are so grateful for family.
Sounds like all is moving along well (I was really worried with the strep you were also dealing with). Hope everything goes beautifully today. You are all in our prayers and we're fasting for you today so you don't have to.
