Emotions Runneth Over… Revel has officially completed one of the toughest treatment phases of her protocol, Delayed Intensification! Just in the past two months she’s endured 2 lumbar punctures, 26 clinic visits, 12 inter muscular chemo injections, 8 port accesses, copious IV and oral chemo meds, one surprise hospitalization, abdominal X-rays, morphine for pain, 2 blood/platelet transfusions, accompanied by intense vomiting and leg pain. We are relieved that this box is checked and we’re beyond grateful for Revel’s bravery and persistence. Despite these challenges, she managed to catch her first fish all on her own and help mommy cook! She is an astounding being. 

We count our blessings for you, the love and support from our family and friends, and for how well she made it through this chapter. Our hearts also break for those who may be having an even harder time beating this beast. We are filled with gratitude and are enjoying every moment of a one week break before beginning Interim Maintenance 2.
