Week 2 treatment has come and gone. So far it didn't seem to make Isabel as sick as the first time. They tested her for anemia and checked her white blood cell count. Both are okay. She has started a shot to help boost the white blood cell count. If her red blood cell count gets too low (anemia) they will have to do a transfusion. During her treatment next week (5 day treatment) they are going to watch her food intake. If it is anything like the last admission they will put her on an appetite stimulant. She hasn't been eating well, but mashed potato's have been the food she has requested most.
We have the child care and hospital stays all set up for the upcoming treatment. If you weren't asked to help, don't worry, there will be plenty of chances.
Nate & Jen would like to thank everyone. The books and shirts are very appreciated, Isabel is very happy as well! Ü
On a lighter note, if you haven't already heard, Tyler & Stephanie had their baby. He was so close to being a Christmas baby. Trey Roland Hadley was born December 26th. 8lbs 8 oz and 21 inches long. Both are doing great!
As I was going through my pictures so I could post Isabel's hair cut, I passed some of these old ones. I got a little emotional to think that for the second time in 5 years, she is having to go through it all again. She is such an amazing girl. She is so strong and so determined.
