Update from the clinic

Mollie's ANC is 1400 so we're starting maintenance. The chemo has been ordered, so Mollie has to get her port accessed, get the chemo infusion, and then it's over to the hospital for the IT chemo (spinal tap).

This is great news! We've been waiting to get to this point for 6+ months! Mollie is somewhat miserable because she is hungry; but she's not grouchy- she did offer to let Molly play with her Elmo toy a few minutes ago. As long as she's distracted, she does fine, but she tells me she's hungry at least once every 5 minutes.

Today Mollie is planning to bring her doll Kirsten into surgery for the spinal tap. And Michelle is watching Lucy- a HUGE help!

She also starts steroids today- a 5 day pulse. I'm anxious to see how this goes because she will get steroids once a month for the next 2 years.
