Ya! I get to go to Calgary today! Wednesday, Oct. 19,2011

Well, as of yesterday, there was not a lot of improvement in Scarlett. The fever comes and goes but they are still testing. X-rays happened yesterday but no results yet. Still not eating so she still has the feeding tube. Still not walking so concerns there. They were also expecting some feedback yesterday about the bone marrow testing last week. They did find out the type of leukemia but more results were supposed to be coming. Maybe today. They are trying to stabilize her so they can go "home" (which is Ronald McDonald house). They all want her to and generally it is good for everyone to not "live" at the hospital, but they won't send her unless they see improvements. Today is a "big" medication day - this may bring improved appetite, raise her platelett count, etc....or not.

They unhooked her feeding tube and IV for a little while yesterday and let her play in the playroom. She painted a picture and was in heaven! She asks Bobbi for her coat so they can go outside. I am so excited to go and spend a few days with them. Hoping to give Bobbi and Lance a little break and play with my little girls. I will update tonight on Bobbi's laptop. (if someone shows me how to use it...:)

Once again, everyone's prayers and concerns are so appreciated. We all feel of your love and your care.
