Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - We found out the results of the spinal fluid tests: there were NO Leukemia cells detected. This was great news as it means that Mady will probably not require any radiation therapy to her brain. They do check her spinal fluid twice more during her inpatient stay, so please continue to keep your fingers crossed.
She began her chemotherapy in the evening, but since she always has one to three intravenous bags attached to her at any given time, it didn't seem like a huge deal. Some of the drugs are oral, so there are definitely more pills to take. One of the drugs is subcutaneous (via syringe) to her thigh, but that comes another day... yikes.
Day 3: Excellent news

This doesn't have anything to do with the post (great news, by the way), but you guys went to Purgatory Chasm this summer?
So did we!
Imagine the chances of that.
