Induction 3- Day 1
Maddy had bloodwork today and her counts have "recovered" enough to start the next phase of treatment tomorrow. She and her Dad will be heading to St. V's in the morning. This visit will hopefully last for only five days and then Maddy should then be able to come home if there are no other complications. Unfortunately, we will then have to start up the daily shots again until her white blood cells recover. On day 22 of this phase, she will return for further treatment and then she will have a recovery period again. The next step will then depend on what path we take for her extended treatment- something Russ and I are still struggling with.

Dorothy and Russ,
ReplyDeleteI'll be praying and praying and praying in the days ahead! Take care and I hope you can rest so you have the strength to face each day with courage and a peace that passes any human understanding.
I know that the decision for the extended treatment is getting nearer and nearer. I know you will make the right decision ---- God will see to that!
Never forget there are many, many people praying for you every single day! You and your family are such an inspiration.
Lots of love and prayers,
Cindy
