We celebrated Mia's birthday at the hospital Thursday night with all of her grandparents and brothers! She had a great celebration!
She was released from the hospital on Friday morning after she received a blood transfusion. She has been doing great since she has been home and has even started to eat a little. She's been primarily tube fed for the past 4 weeks so we are glad that her appetite is returning.
We went this week for lab work at the clinic. Her immunity levels have dropped since the hospital stay but that's what they expected to happen. Her heart rate was a little elevated so we are just watching for any illnesses but she sometimes just has a normal high heart rate.
We are waiting to find out what day the OR has avaliable next week to start her last intense round of chemo. She will start off with a spinal tap and chemo on day 1 and then return the following day for more chemo. This cycle is a little tricky because the chemo she will receive will be in escalating doses but also dependent on her kidney function levels. We are just hoping she doesn't get too sick this cycle and continues to eat more each day!
