Thank each of you for the thoughts and prayers today. Amber is still CANCER FREE. She looks great and now that today is over so to speak she feels great. They did see a small amount of blood in her urine both the last two times she has gone in - nothing to worry about but still to keep an eye on. They want her back in another 3 months as normal. They expect to go to every 6 months after her Oct scans. That will mark the 2 yrs out of treatment. Wow can you believe it has been that long already? We have been truly blessed. She had a good time getting to see everyone who works there though she could do without the IV they have to do each time now. She hasn't gained any weight but did a little more growing. It is a great day for us all. Also, thought I would mention that Amber is in the Spring edition of St Jude's Hope catalog. She is also on the web site. www.stjude.org and go to the gift shop and she will pop up. I love the pictures they took. And she looks so healthy in my personal opinion. She had a great time doing this photo op. So go on by and check out our cutie pie and maybe pick up some of the really cool things they have for sale. After all can you think of a better way to help support such a great place and get shopping in to boot. I would like to again thank all of you. I know we have relied on you all more than you could ever know. The Lord has given us much to be thankful for and we include each of you in those blessings. Please continue to keep Amber and all the other kids/parents fighting in your prayers. We have lost a few of the ones we have gotten to know and I pray that one day we can say that there is a cure and no need for places like St Jude any more but until we can - we will continue to pray right along with each of you for each of them. God bless you all. Tracey
