Nine down and only 3 more rounds to go (15 days of chemo left in total)! Hannah's now 3/4 of the way done with her treatments. She did get fevers again for a couple days, but no (yahoo!) ER visit was needed since they were definitely chemo-related again. She was very lethargic and nauseous once again. That seems to almost be cummulative in nature, since it seems to be ramping up each month. BUT...in true Hannah fashion, she was "ready to go" once Nurse Sandi gave her the last dose today and de-accessed her. She insisted on going outside and riding her bike afterward. She's definitely been waiting for that for the last 5 days. So she's bouncing back nicely. Her next blood draw is on the 9th and then again on the 21st, followed by the quarterly scans scheduled for July 23rd. We'll keep you posted on her progress. For now, we're off to Eagle River, Wisconsin over the 4th of July to spend some time with our dear friends at their cottage on Deerskin Lake. The kids are really looking forward to the weekend away and so are we. Thanks again for checking in on our little girl and keeping her in your thoughts and prayers. It means so much to us!
