    Default My Maggie

    I know that some of you read my caringbridge blog - so you can ignore this.

    Just a reminder, Maggie is our 3 year old daughter who was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma in Feb.

    We leave tomorrow for Indy. Thursday morning we will start the stem cell harvest this will take potentially 2 full days. The stem cells will be saved for later down the road: after the 6th round of chemo and is about a 6 week hospitalization.

    More than likely she will have more scans done next week - many of which she will be given sleep medicine for so that she either lays still for it or doesn't feel the pain.

    More than likely after that will be the 3rd round of chemo. This round is reportedly much more harsh (nausea and weakness). I am more worried about this as I really don't know how she will respond to it and how long it will take her to bounce back from it.

    So please be praying.

    I cannot imagine what you and your family are going through right now.

    Prayers going out that Maggie will take the treatments with as little side effects as possible, and that she will recover quickly from it. And I pray that she makes a full recovery soon.

    Prayers are sent up for you and your family especially Maggie. No parent or child should have to go through what your family is going through. May God and the doctors heal Maggie. Blessings and you are in my heart,mind and prayers.
