Thursday, October 25, 2007 - Well, after getting her 1,400 ANC Mady had planned to go to school this morning, but yesterday afternoon the school informed Chris that Mady needed a note from her doctor saying that she is medically able to return to school. Plus, the nurse needs to physically meet with Chris before Mady is allowed back. Dr. Friedmann thinks that Mady should absolutely go to school if her counts are good (they are) and she feels up to it energy-wise (she does), but the permission slip and meeting took us by surprise. Hopefully, Mady will get to go in after lunch today.
As I sit here writing this, I'm eating a Mady-cake, one of her now-famous egg-less buttermilk pancakes with banana slices baked-in. A friend brought her some organic maple syrup last night... yum. Truly the best pancakes I've ever tasted (even better when they're smothered in the warm afterglow of last night's decisive Red Sox victory in Game 1 of the World Series).
Day 46: School? Maybe

Those pancakes sounds so good. Would Mady share her receipe with us. So happy about the blood test and going back to school for Mady. Love from Fl. fans.
Maddy should open her own Clinic..
the hell with chemotherapy!
Banana Pancake Therapy is the way to go!
I have been reading about your family and Mady's saga so far. Am delighted to hear that things are going better!
You are showing great resourcefulness as a family through this difficult time. It is remarkable how adversity can bring into being.creative ways to cope, and to sustain each other.
Bravo for Mady and for you all.
Yeah, well, it was a *little* disappointing not to see Mady at school today, but that's okay.
We'll all see her tomorrow.
