Dr. Dread

Later on Wednesday, the children had their follow-up doctor visit, which included drawing blood for routine testing. As you can see, all was fun with the abacus toy ... until the dreaded needles. Anna sensed something was about to happen and got very nervous. Alexander Ruslan was not just nervous but downright adamant that the nurses weren't going to get anything from him. Unfortunately for him, all his tensing up and muscle exertion only meant he had to get poked three times (once on each arm and finally in a fingertip) in order to get enough blood needed for testing.
