Treatment On

Treatment is on for tomorrow (Wedensday). With her new Hello Kitty band aid in hand (thanks Aunt Becky) Eden visited her friends at our local lab and we are amazed by her awesome results. God has once again laid his healing hands on Eden and given her close to normal results. I think the bye week will allow her to enter the second phase of this round strong.

Tomorrow, Eden and I will be leaving the house before 7 to be admitted to “Emme’s Hospital” (she loves her nurses!) Eden will be receiving 2 different chemo drugs via her port, a new oral chemo and a spinal with chemo. Since we will be admitted our regular doctor will not necessarily be performing the spinal and she will be comforted by possibly unfamiliar nurses. Please pray that this procedure goes better than the last couple and that it may be done early in the morning as she will not be able to eat or drink until after the procedure. Note . . . the difficulties we have had with the last couple procedure are not impart to our wonderful doctors but more so Eden’s distress.

This will be our last scheduled admission. All of her treatment going forward will be done at home or in the clinic. This will be a bittersweet celebration as we love all the staff but we are so thankful for the next step.

It is getting late. . . . thanks for the prayers. Love levetzows

  1. Hi Selena, Kurt, & Eden,
    Hope today is going well, I have been thinking about you and praying for you. I can't believe all the stuff Eden ate while she was on steroids, I didn't know a little one could hold that much food. Yes, I did have to laugh. We will continue to pray that this will be the last hospital visit and no fever or any other sickness.
    ove and prayers,
    U Ardyce & A Nancy
