Ally's oncologist just called (she actually has 3, but her primary oncologist was on vacation last week...well deserved, and has just reviewed Ally's scans from last week). She (the doctor) told us that Ally no longer has lesions on her legs! She (the doctor) believes this is from the chemo. She (the doctor) (it would just be easier if I used her name, but I have not asked permission) will be talking to the neuroblastoma expert at the Jimmy Fund this week. They are going to make a decision as to what our next step will be, and we should know by the end of this week what we will be doing next week....it is kind of nice to "have the summer off".
Happy Update. @>----

PS Ally did NOT go in the pool. She did sit on the side with Grammy and dip her feet in. Mommy took her once around the pool (Ally's toes in the water) and she cried the whole time. When asked later in the afternoon if she liked the pool Ally said "YES!" What a strange kiddo.

Hmmm... If crying means she liked the pool, I shudder to think what would havde signified disliking it. 8)

The abscence of leasions has nothing to do with chemo IMHO but rather is a miracle, pure and simple. I pray the doctors and their science don't screw up Ally's recovery!
