HIB Update

The last piece to our immunization dilemma has been taken care of!! Part of getting Joshua ready for transplant was to make sure that he was up to date on all his immunizations. We were able to give him all but the HIB shot. Seemed there is a little shortage of this vaccination. I had even resorted to calling Missoula to see if we could get a dose from his pediatrician, who unfortunately was out of the office for the week. The nurse was concerned about the refrigeration required.

BUT....the pharmacist, I believe, was able to plead his case to the manufacturer and actually get them to agree to get us a dose by FRIDAY!! The regular shipment is 1-2 months out. This is a spectacular miracle!!
