Today went well. Ally and Daddy were in and out in record time. They got there for 8:00 this morning, and were on the road by 2:00 (this is a really good time for the kind of chemo Ally got today).

Ally will have a blood draw next week to check her counts. We know they will be low, but we are hoping she will recover quickly. Low counts will mean that we need to stay away from crowded places and sick people, hopefully we will still have lots of fun during vacation next week. Ally really misses school, and we are hoping that her counts will be good enough to go back to school the first week of May.

Tonight the chemo does not seem to be affecting her at all. She did not nap today, she is FULL of energy and hasn't stopped talking since I got home from work (Daddy said she has been like this all day). The only thing we see is a lack of appetite, but it could be her just taking advantage of us not forcing food on her like we normally do.....someday I'll post about Ally's sticker charts.
