Week of Scans: Day 1

Katie had her central line put back in today. (This makes her FOURTH central line in less than a year!) We stayed in a hotel last night so that she could go swimming. She loved it! The pool was indoors but was still cold BUT they had a hot tub that was only warm so that worked just fine. Surgery was on time and everything went well. She was upset when we got back to the recovery room but it was manageable. We are back home now and just trying to let the effects of the anesthesia wear off. Tomorrow we have to be back at 8 in the morning for a kidney function test (they do this before most rounds of chemo &/or immunotherapy). Then on Wednesday she has her CT scans. Thursday she has her MIBG (similar to a CT scan but looks more closely at the soft tissue.) Please continue to keep us in your prayers. We are praising God that we had a month off from the central line and that we got to have a little bit of normalcy back....it was so good to see my 4 year old acting like herself again...and it is so hard to feel that normal little girl may soon become the crazy little girl that TCH makes her...
