Keira had her MIBG scan today. Overall things ran smoothly. She woke up this morning and had a small breakfast, despite Dad's coaxings and then played for a while before taking an early nap. We were worried that she would throw a fit around noon because she wanted food, but you all must have been praying for her. Despite the fact that she didn't go under anesthesia until 3:15 (almost 7 hours with nothing to eat or drink) she didn't make a peep!
The test went smoothly. They did another bone marrow biopsy after it was over and then let her wake up. We got home around 8:15 and both mom and dad were exhausted. All in all, things went off without a hitch. We will go back tomorrow to get some results.
Please be praying for Keira's doctors that they will interpret the scans acurately and make the best decisions for her care based off these tests. Also please be praying for Charli. She is another little girl (10 months old) who has Neuroblastoma and is at the same stage in treatment that Keira is. Her parents are going tomorrow to meet with their doctor and decide on the next step (surgery, more chemo, etc) Please pray for strength and wisdom for her parents as this will be a difficult decision to make.
We will post again as soon as we know more. Thank you for your prayers and support!
Jason, Erin and Keira Grace
