A positive outlook is the best defence/ offence you can have against any disease. Sure, it sounds hokey but don't let the the little buggers get the best of you. And do have your litte ones checked out soon. A little prick can be doctored with lots of ice cream and chocolate. Good luck! All the best to you.

Chin up girl. Whatever happens, we'll be here for you. Re prepping the girls for the blood draw.. Can you find out in advance how much blood will they need? i.e. a real blood draw via the veins vs. a small poke on a finger (they can then squeeze blood into a small vial using the tiny hole, that's how they do it with our baby girl). I imagine it will be the small poke, it can still be very traumatic.. If I were you, I'd find that info out first. And then telling them about it only the night before, mention it casually that they have to see the doc/nurse briefly because the doc needs a sample from them. I wouldn't elaborate too much into details unless they asked for the whole picture. And after the blood draw both girls will get ice cream / a treat -- and make it sound like THAT part of the day will be the big deal. I'm sure they will do just fine. :) I wish it was different for you. Chin up girl. Whatever happens, we’ll be here for you.
