Clinic Visit
Yes, today was another clinic visit. I keep hoping I can cancel this appointment! Mallory is 22lbs! A record for her. She is still doing well. Logan had a good time meeting her Dr. and the Transplant coordinators. Becki from Child Life also came to our clinic visit to say Hello and play with Mallory for a bit. When Mallory sees Becki she gets very excited and says her name right away and then "bubbles?" Becki has the best bubbles on earth, they are called Gazillion bubbles, and Mallory just loves blowing bubbles with her. At our last clinic visit we had bubbles all over the floor, Becki, Mom and Mallory!!
They have done two heart transplants in the last two weeks. Everyone at clinic said their transplants always come in groups of three, so we are hoping Mallory will be included in this group of three. At times I feel bad about praying a heart will come because I know another family has to suffer a great loss for our family to find joy. It's a bittersweet time. I keep praying for the families who are giving such a wonderful gift-the gift of life. I know all of you will keep those families in your prayers, as well as checking the donor box on the back of your drivers license and letting your loved ones know you want to be a donor! :) Yes, this will be the new soap box I will be standing on!
Happy Spring?! It doesn't seem like spring when you have snow falling again does it? Here in St. Louis it has just been raining and the wind has been blowing. Next week it is supposed to get back into the 60's.
Thanks again for posting notes on Mallory's blog. We love reading them over and over again!!

Hey Wendy,
Just found out about your blog from Jan. What a great idea! I just wanted to say that I'm thinking of you and Mallory. I know Logan had a great week with you, and Madison is waiting for her turn.
Stay strong.

Kiss those chubby little Mallory cheeks for me.
And tell Logan I missed him this last week!
Dear Mallowee,
I know you miss your family so much. And, uh, you love your brudder and sister so much. You probably miss your daddy too. You are so lucky to live at McDonalds and you are berry special. I LOVE McDonalds!!!(My mommy doesn't though.) I think Duke misses you too. And when you come back to church we will all be happy that you will be better. Tell Ronald that I said Hi.
From Logan and Madi's buddy, Max.
P.S. Sawyer thinks you're beautiful.
Hi Wendy and Mallory,
Grandma Marilyn sent me the RMd weblink. Thank you. Your blog is great and you both look beautiful. Your strength is inspiring; I often think how you do it Wendy - you are remarkable. I will continue to pray for you and your family.
Mallory is a doll and her siblings are adorable. I cannot believe how BIG they are!!
I look forward to seeing your family this summer:)
Take care and God Bless,
