Paranoid.
Does anyone else suffer from extreme anxiety at the thought of having to eventually remove your bandaid after a blood draw? I don't know what it is. It's almost like, I believe that bandaid is the only thing keeping the blood inside my body. I will leave the bandaid on for DAYS if I can. Eventually though, it falls off in the shower. When it does come off, I hesitate to look for fear blood will be running down my arm. Then, I sigh in relief when I see a little scab over the little hole and realize that I'm still alive after the whole bandaid removal ordeal. So stressful.

Sara,
20 minutes will do just fine unless you are a hemopheliac.
Love the last picture of Chase, he is growing up so fast. Your headless portrait was fine also.
Have a great day.
haha! you're so funny! i take it off before i even leave the dr. office. i hate those band-aides in the crook of my arm. they drive me nuts!
Haha used to be the EXACT same way. That is until I was a pin cushion during my pregnancy with Carter. I actually got to the point where I could watch them take the blood. Weird, I know. Guess the hole I had in my arm made me a little less of a stress ball. And to think that before I was pregnant with Ella I was SO scared to have my blood taken or my first IV.
Some things never change.....I remember you running from the exam table after blood draws when you had cat scratch fever...then falling over like a tree in the woods! Fainted dead-away! Needles and all that come with them have never been your forte. You have other talents :0)
Love, Mom
