Day 2, Part 2

Well it's 10:15 and Madeline is done with her first chemo treatment. The chemo started quite a bit later than expected, so just wrapping up.  She is doing well. A little tired, but it's pretty late and we've had a long few days. 

The additional MRIs earlier today came back clear, so another confirmation that the cancer seems to be isolated in the fibula. Always a chance that some microscopic pieces have spread, but nothing that has materialized besides in the one spot we initially found. That's really great news.  Pray the chemo does its job to stop any others trying to form or grow. 

Tomorrow we will pretty much be a lot like today. Lots of fluids, repeat the chemo treatment from today tomorrow evening, and lots more fluids. Then a day or two of even more fluids. 

Again, so thankful for all the prayers and messages and comments. Fun to see Madeline smile when we show her. The bracelet pics are just awesome!  

It's officially Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Many of us have become very aware in the last week... Sue Clark said it best today- I pray there is a day when we don't need a Childhood Cancer Awareness Month...  We are so happy with our decision on hospital and clinicians. These people rock!  I am amazed at how wonderful everyone has been. It takes a special person to have to see children dealing with this on a daily basis. Keep them in your prayers as well!
