Week 17...

Gee - Is it Noveber already?

Ava did really well on Friday.


Our trip to Anchorage was long as usual but we made it back in one day and that is ALWAYS good.

She is now on phase II of treatment, which means that she has treatment every 3rd week instead of every week :)

Her scans will be repeated at the end of December to follow up and make sure all is still going well and that LCH is gone and not progressing.

We are looking forward to some down time the next few weekends - it's been a while. Just to sit back and relax at home and...relax.

Ava has had a good weekend so far, no fevers and no new complaints. Now, on to a fabulous week!

Thanks everyone for all of your prayers, thoughts and well wishes - they are all so much appreciated. Please continue to pray not just for little Ava but for all of those that suffer and perservere through such an experience...it isn't easy.

If children have the ability to ignore all odds and percentages, then maybe we can all learn from them. When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up, or fight like hell. ~Lance Armstrong
