We are back in the hospital this week for another round of chemo. We checked in yesterday around noon, hydrated all afternoon, and started chemo last night about 6:30pm. Chemo was finished at 10:30 and Madeline got a good night's sleep. This chemo drug is the one you have to clear to go home. They do a blood test every 12-24 hours until you get to 0.10. Madeline is hoping to be home for Trick-or-Treating on Halloween. She is dressing up as Little Red Riding Hood this year!
She is feeling okay and enjoying some extra rest today. She has lots of homework and a whole bag of things to do so I'm sure the next few days will pass quickly.
Next week, we will do the same thing. The good news it will be the last round of chemo before surgery later in the month. Still waiting to figure out those details and will share when we know more.
Last night the Evans Middle School Pantherettes dedicated their halftime dance at the 8th grade Cockrill - Evans football game to Madeline. What a wonderful showing of love for our sweet girl!
Finally, on Tuesday, November 3rd, the students and staff at Ben and Madeline's middle school will be wearing their "MadelineStrong" t-shirts as a show of support. If they don't have t-shirts, they can wear yellow or pink. Please feel free to wear your shirt, or pink/yellow on Tuesday too!
