100%

Just a quick update. Maddy had blood work done yesterday and her counts have come back up, so she is able to take 100% of her medication again. We are glad to be back on track! Fortunately, Maddy has not picked up any of the bugs that have been going around at school lately. She is due for another treatment and a spinal on February 3rd.

Happy New Year!

We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We enjoyed our time with family and friends and were able to spend some time together as a family. We hope everyone was able to do the same.

Unfortunately, Maddy's counts dropped over the holidays and we had to stop her chemo pills for a week. Fortunately for Maddy, this meant that she could eat at all hours of the day during the holiday festivities! : ) We went to Toledo this past Wednesday to have her blood work done again and her counts had come up. She is now back on 50% of her medication and we hope she is able to tolerate it and slowly build back up to 100%. She goes back to the clinic this Wednesday for a treatment so we will be able to check her counts again.

We are looking forward to another year and pray for continued strength!
