Our brave little girl went through a lot of tests today. We spent 8 hours at the hospital, but thankfully we are closer to setting up a plan of treatment for her. Today she had a CT, MRI, blood work, and a bone marrow biopsy (actually 2 - 1 in each hip). She is very groggy right now and her throat is a little soar from the intubation (a tube down her airway), but she is doing exceptionally well for an 11 month-old who just had all that done to her.
Sadly, today is her 11 month birthday. And while I can think of a million ways she would probably rather spend her birthday, there is some good news to report: they saw no sign of the cancer in her abdomen or pelvis! So, at least we know for sure that it has not spread to those regions. And while there is still more to look at, that is something to rejoice in. Thank you all for your prayers and praise God for a good start.
There is still more to come, including a sample of the tissue, which will determine the treatment plan. Please continue to pray.
Thank you,
Jason, Erin & Keira
