She has had 9 surgeries on her back and legs before diagnosis of ALL. Since diagnosis she has had 6 addition surgeries and a lung washing. Since diagnosis she has had a total of 22 blood or platelet transfusions; and 134 inpatient days including 2 additional spinal surgeries and knee surgery.

She finished her Chemo treatment. Our last official dose was May 12, 2007! We will continue to be seen every 3-4 months for blood work and can now focus on treating Katie Rose other medical problems. We pray we never see leukemia again! Katie is doing very well now and continues to make progress in all areas of her health.
