Hello all,

We are still at the hospital. We will be here until her ANC level is up. (I don't know what ANC stands for, but it has to do with her white blood cells and overall ability to fight off infection.) Her levels are on their way up, so we are hoping hoping hoping they are high enough tomorrow to go home, if not Thursday or Friday.

She is still not eating. Only 4 ounces of yogurt all day (no cream mixed in). She does not have a lot of energy and is preferring to be held over any other activity (although she does like to go for a wagon ride). Daddy brought her to the doctor's office that put her ear tubes in. The doctor vacuumed out some ear wax, and you can just imagine the noise Ally made when he did that. She has a follow up with him when we come back here for her next round of chemo (which is next Friday the 16th).

Mommy has caught another case of the sniffles (probably from being back at work with all those kids and germs), so she is back to wearing the funny yellow mask!

Hopefully I will be writing the update from Concord tomorrow!
