We have really enjoyed our time at home with Emma. She has an appointment tomorrow at 11 a.m. to see if she will make counts in order to start her next round of chemo. We were in on tuesday and friday of last week, but she had not produced enough white blood cells and platelets to continue on.
Her white blood cells have been high enough for us to take her out, and boy did we take advantage of it. We went out to eat a ton and of course shopping. Today we went to church. It was so nice to see everyone that have been praying for Emma and to thank them. We also made a trip to great uncle Jim's church to show Emma off there.
Jonny just got back from a golf trip this weekend and has enjoyed his time with Emma on Father's day. She has been such a delight these past two weeks and we have had so much fun! We are expecting to admit to the hospital on tuesday for 5 days of chemo and then home. We will be back in the clinic at least twice a week for check-ups and for more chemo, but those should be out-patient.
Please pray for:
next round of chemo
no side effects from chemo
a restful stay at the hospital
a good result on the bone marrow test
Glad you got to spend your first Father's Day with Emma at home!!
