Today, while preparing the hospital bag for a 4 day admission, Jenny packed 2 hair combs. We laughed as we tried to figure out which of the 4 of us might need a comb?

Not Quite There Yet...
Ainsley went in to the hospital this morning for a bone marrow biopsy, lumbar puncture, and to be admitted for 4 days of chemotherapy. She was brave! But when the lab results came back, her marrow wasn't producing enough to start on the next part of the journey. So we have to sit in a holding pattern and try again next week. Each new round of chemotherapy will deplete her bone marrow in an effort to slow the reproduction rate of the cancer cells, but if it gets knocked down too far, then it cannot grow the normal blood cells that you need. That means we have to wait another couple weeks at least to find out if she is in remission or not. We were so hoping to get the sample today and find out the answer in the next few days. It is all just part of the journey!
