Finally Coming Home

After getting her central line removed and a new picc line put in on Tuesday, Maddy started her chemo. She finished up with that on Thursday evening, but since she spiked fevers, she wasn't able to come home on Friday. The doctor said if she didn't have any more fevers on Friday that she would be able to come home Saturday. We made sure to drink a lot of cold water before temperatures were taken on Friday (Ha Ha) and Maddy was good to go. Unfortunately, her blood counts have already started to drop so she has to get a blood transfusion before she leaves. She is getting that now and then we should be on our way... Finally!

  1. Maddy-
    Glad to hear you are on your way home. Enjoy the sunshine on your drive home and get some rest. This hospital stay has been a doozie and I am so glad you get to bust out of there! Get some rest and we'll keep praying for you.
    Love,
    The Warner's

  2. Did your dad have to bring a U-Haul to bring everything home that you collected up there the last 12 days? Hopefully not! Glad you are coming home today. Archbold misses you when you are in Toledo! Be good! See you soon! We'll bring you a shirt as soon as we can!

    Love you,
    Mrs. Daisy Buehrer

  3. Dear Maddy,

    Alright, on your way back home! You little trooper. Praying you are home and hugging Lizzie by the time you read this. I hear you are quite a little teacher grading papers and all. Good for you :-) Keep those blood counts up and fevers away. Hugs to you.
