Katie's hemoglobin was low so we made a run to TCH today to get a blood transfusion. Hopefully the rest of the week will be uneventful. We have an appointment on Monday with the radiation oncologist and the bone marrow transplant people. If Katie's blood levels are at the right amount, on Tuesday, she will have a phoresis catheter (central line in her hip) to have the stem cells extracted. Hopefully it will only take one day to do the extraction and then they can remove the phoresis catheter.
Yesterday we had a pretty good day (well most of it). Laura Beth had a 15 month checkup. Katie stayed with great-grandma while I took Laura Beth to the doctor. Katie had a GREAT time playing with great-grandma. Laura Beth got 3 shots and was very cranky all day (rightfully so!) Katie and I played candy land and memory when we got home and lounged around while Laura Beth napped. Well, that is about all the news for now.
Hi, Christa! Just saying I'm keeping up with you and thinking of you. You're showing strength you never knew you'd have to have. Love you. Beth
