“Jack did it! Yesterday before his baseball game Jack tried self-infusion again and got the vein. Under Allison’s tutelage, Jack has been working on self-infusion since he got home from camp a week ago and yesterday was THE DAY.
We are so proud of him. This is a huge step toward full self-sufficiency and ownership of his hemophilia care.
Congratulations Jack!!
Keep it up! “
