Three things I wouldn't have at my Halloween Party!

     We all know Halloween can be a bit bloody.  If your child has hemophilia, your job is to avoid blood 365 days a year.  I found a few Halloween themed ideas for a party, a Hemo Mom would probably not want to have:

1.  A Bloody Fondue Bar

     A Hemo Mom doesn't want to see blood flowing.  We stay on our tight prophylaxis schedule to avoid such problems and a hell of a lot of money on factor!

2.  Blood Mary Shooters

     A child with hemophilia see's his blood taken in test tubes at least once a year and almost every month for some.  I think that would cause a lot of confusion for my 3 year old at the next Dr. appointment!

3.  A Fake Bloody Bruise

     Should I have to say why a Hemo Mom would not want to see her child running around with a fake bruise all day...including the reasons in number 1...bruises are not our friend!

Now, our sons are probably numb to the sight of blood and may like all the bloody stuff!  So click on the links and have fun!
