2nd Enbrel Injection....check

Yesterday evening, I gave Trevor his next Enbrel injection. It was MUCH easier this time, I only had a migraine for about an hour after giving it!!
He actually didn't even release I gave it to him. I was soooo excited, and so pleased with myself until I almost stuck myself with the needle! I guess I din't need to get too cocky!
I do however know, that we CAN do this and it really does get better!!! I always heard that but I really never thought that "passing out after looking at a needle Julie" could do this, she (I) can!
On a different but similar note, we leave for the national JA conference in St. Louis tomorrow!! We are so excited!! I will blog more during and after and have LOTS of pictures.

I don't know if I have written it before but the Arthritis Foundation is amazing! The Florida chapter has given us a $1500.00 scholarship to attend the conference. There are 19 Florida families going. I am so excited to connect, share, and learn anything and everything I can. There is a huge support out there for people with arthritis!!
Okay, on to packing... Next fear, getting through security with the Enbrel shot!!! I think I am ready (he he)!
Did I mention, that this was Allie and Trevor's first time flying? It will be fun!
