News from AllyLand:


Good Morning,

Ally's 2nd day of round 3 Chemo should be starting soon. The nurses are working hard to make sure we can leave on Monday and not Tuesday.

They have changed her meds again. They are going to give her some super med to get rid of her thrush before we go, so we don't have to worry about it at home.

Except for the time she was screaming when they took her blood pressure her blood pressure seems to be stable with the lower meds, we are hoping that continues for the rest of our visit.

We got test results back: The MIBG showed only glowing parts at the tumor, good news. The CT scan showed the tumor has shrunk about as much as they expected it would: also good news. We will not know about bone marrow until next week.

We have a good view of the mountains from our room and the parking lot. Ally LOVES to watch the cars and people move in the parking lot. We can also see where the helicopters land...she loves that. Best view yet.
