Good News

This post is all about good news. We just got back from a great trip in New York. We went to see Meredith’s radiation oncologist. We got a great report and don’t have to make a follow up appointment. She asked us to stop by and see them next time we are in NY. While we were there, we went to the top of the Empire State Building. It was wonderful and we had a great time roaming around NYC. Zach got to go to the LEGO store and Meredith to the American Girl store. What a treat! We got to see lots of NY family and generally were spoiled rotten by Steve’s parents. It was a wonderful trip.

We are getting very close to the end of the odyssey, fingers crossed. Meredith has a long day of chemo on February 28. She has two weeks off and then her last chemo (again, fingers crossed) is March 20. She will have scans soon after that.

She has not been to school in a while. For a few weeks her counts were so low that I was hesitant to send her to school. Her counts from Tuesday were great. Overall, she hasn’t been feeling that well, but I am not sure why. She could be fighting something or just having a reaction to the chemo. So, if she is feeling up to it, she will try school Friday.

Also, save the date for our Good-bye Stupid Cancer party. It looks like it will be July 21 but will update as it gets closer.

That is our general news. I will write again after scans. Fingers are crossed, big time. Thank you for all the support. I can’t believe this is almost over. We couldn’t have done it alone.
