Faye went back to the hospital today to begin Round 3 of Chemo. Everyone was getting anxious because they only like to have 30 days between the beginning of rounds and Faye was at day 45. Her counts had been up to 500 but when she was tested again today they had dropped to 460. They don't know why and talked for a minute about sending her home! Luckily they didn't and she had a bone marrow biopsy, some AraC, and was admitted to a new room. The preliminary results of the biopsy look good but more thorough results are coming soon.
Here's some pictures of Faye's short stay at home...
Making "Cutter Cookies"
Aaahhhh... normal kid stuff. Thank goodness she gets a little of that in the midst of all this. But, let's keep telling that cancer who's boss! YOU ARE FAYE! Round 3 here we come!

Oh, I loved reading about her doing normal kid stuff, it must be such a nice break for her!! Yes Faye, you can totally kick butt! Nixon is so adorable!
I am so glad she got her time at home, the tennis pictures are darling. I love seeing her be a normal kid, so I can't imagine how that must make you guys feel.
Stace I know can you belive it 14 and a half more days at this point! I am so ready to hug you all, warn the boys their new favorite friend is coming. They will be about sick of my kisses when I leave!
My kids like to quote Punky Brewster "I have two different feet so I wear two different shoes." Your new kitchen looks nice! Nixon looks way too big. Guess I'll be seeing it all in person soon!
