Bella's MRI

Today Bella had an MRI done of her spine.  She's a toe walker and the doctors haven't found a cause for it so they wanted to make sure everything is as it should be with her spine.  We don't have results yet though.  She was really nervous about it, she's had an MRI before but she was two and doesn't remember it.  She knew she'd have to get an IV and that's what scared her the most.  But then we got there and went in and she saw the murals on the walls and her fear disappeared.  And when it came to the IV she didn't even flinch, the nurses said she was the bravest they've seen.



Lots of orcas and dolphins, all her favorite animals. Suddenly she was so excited to be there and quickly went to work coloring.



We got called back quick though so there wasn't much time to color. She got her vitals taken and then passed the time reading and watching Netflix on my phone.








Then they put her to sleep and she woke up a couple hours later. She kept shaking after she woke up which freaked her out and caused her to shake even more. It was a pretty ugly cycle for a bit but as soon as she got up and into the wheelchair she snapped out of it and was back to herself quickly.
