December 15th, 2014

Sorry it has been a few days. I was sick on Thursday and had to leave the hospital for a few days. It was truly a blessing in disguise because it gave me an extra 2 days with my boys! They are doing well but with the holidays coming it's tough. Ryan asked, "When will we be a family again?" It wasn't an easy question to answer but we talked it through and hopefully we will be home soon.

Mia has an infection called c-diff so unfortunately she is quarantined to her room for 10 days and on antibiotics every 6 hours. Needless to say this hasn't been easy but Mike and my Mom took excellent care of her and distracted her while I was gone.

They repeated a chest x-Ray which shows a significant decrease again of the mass which is excellent. We talked to the doctor about when she would be able to come home and it all depends on her numbers. Christmas eve she will receive the last chemo for this stage and they will also complete another bone marrow biopsy to see how she responded to this first cycle. Please continue to say prayers and hope for a Christmas miracle! I have been keeping everyone in my thoughts and prayers this holiday season. We realize how lucky we are and truly appreciate everything everyone is doing for us!
