Eden has had a great couple of days. While some of her numbers are a bit lower right now (to be expected with her chemo) she has been exceptionally entertaining. She has slept well; however, her eating habits have surely changed. She does not have the voracious appetite anymore.
Her current treatment still includes the nightly pokes. With that, the dread of the "poke" is happily balanced with which band-aid she will wear after. The routine begins with selection of the band-aid. She has two major choices: My Little Pony and Sesame Street. While pouring through her choices before the poke, Eden is quite perplexed as to why there is no Grover band-aid in the Sesame Street Box. Despite this concern, there has been an overwhelming winner this week as she chose a Big Bird band-aid for the second night in a row. Our brave little girl has done well taking her pokes.
Thanks for your prayers!

Great news, the band-aids have made things a little easier as the pokes continue. She is definitely a brave little girl. She seems to be handling things well for her age. I am sure that Jesus is looking over her, as we know how Jesus loves the little children. We will continue to pray for her well being, good numbers and no fevers, and continued good trips to Iowa City. You are all in our prayers and thoughts daily. Lots of love and hugs, Aunt Mary and Uncle Heinz
