A "Bye" Week

Well, I am sure that you remember that today is clinic day; however, no clinic for Eden today. Eden had blood work done yesterday and her numbers were not high enough for her chemo this week. This is not unusual during this stage of her chemo. So, we will have labs drawn again next Tuesday to see if her counts look a little better.

Despite her numbers being low, Eden has been her usual joyful self and quite full of energy. Our day was consumed with an early nap, reading, cooking and strolling. Isn't it delightful to get out?
The picture is her getting ready to go for pokes at our clinic across the street she was ready to get out of the house, even for pokes. The sparkly band aid and fruit snacks were an added bonus.


Thanks for your prayers, we feel very blessed with how healthy Eden has stayed during this phase and how minimal the side effects have been. Please continue to lift our little sweetie up . . .

  1. What a darling picture of Eden, she looks ready to go, so full of energy. You do so well with keeping us up to date on what's new with Eden. We continue to hold Eden in prayer, and hope that next week the counts are up. This nice weather has everyone eager for "spring" to come and stay. To get outdoors feels "great" and so refreshing. God's blessings to you. Sent with hearts full of love and hugs too. Aunt Mary & Uncle Heinz

  3. Hi Selena, Kurt, and Eden,
    What a cute picture of Eden, she looks so grown up and all the conversations you have with her she sounds like a 4 year old. She really seems advanced in her speech. I guess you already know what a smart little girl she is. Hope you got to go on a stroller ride yesterday, it was beautiful here and assume it was the same in Washington. Today not so good, rained all morning. Have a good week, we continue to remember Eden everyday in our prayers.
    Love, Uncle Ardyce & Aunt Nancy
