"Ally going to sleep under Christmas Tree tonight."

Ally had some blood work done yesterday. We got word that her red blood counts are going up on thier own; hopefully this will mean no more transfusions. Her white cells hit the magic number where we can stop giving her the injections in her legs and we were able to take her off the antibiotics! This is very good news in the diaper area.

We have been enjoying our time at home. A teacher friend of Mommy's brought us the most beautiful tree last night! It is the perfect shape, size and smell! Last night we got the lights on, and tonight we finished with the ornaments. Ally had so much fun putting the ornaments on. (Several of them are laid on the branches, rather than hung, but that is the way Ally works.)
We are looking forward to a nice weekend. A couple of Aunties, an Uncle and a set of Grandparents are scheduled to visit; and Mommy and Daddy will get to go out and shop and be together, just the two of them.....ahhhhh, very nice.

Good news on Ally.
Tried to send following message but earthlink rejected as spam. LOL

Greetings friends:

While I don't normally support charities covering goods and services to which people are entitled, the proposal by the Remote Area Medical (RAM)
Foundation to hold a cost-free health clinic at the D.C. Armory seems like a worth-while endeavor and covering the $77,000 fee should be easy, if all of us chip in. The nation's capital is certainly not remote, but it seems
that both the Congress and the local health establishment are disinclined to confront unmet needs, so a health fair just 2000 yards from the capitol might wake them up.
I should warn you that the RAM donation process is a bit clunky and particular about passwords having the right configuration and the right number of letters and numbers.
