so katie is teaching carsen how to draw blood. anne said she was game to play guniea pig, so off we went. carsen watched intensely. then she practiced on an orange.
and on me.
SUCCESS!
so then katie started teaching carsen about IVs. anne has "good veins" on her hands. see how good they are? full of blood!
i mean, technically this was a success too! katie definately got the vein. the only problem is the needle had no stop and no bag on it, so where else would the blood go? everywhere, apparently.
