Keira is in for Chemo... oh and she is a star!

Keira was admitted for Chemo yesterday. We are hoping that everything goes perfectly and she is out by Friday night because there is a lot going on this weekend. Of the last three admissions she was able to get out in 72 hours only once so our fingers are crossed. Her doctors also know that we are trying to be out by Friday night so they were able to start her Chemo a little earlier in the day then they normally would.

On another note, we were filmed for the upcoming Alex's Lemonade Stand telethon in April and the ads have started running. Keira is going to love seeing herself on T.V!

Keira and Daddy

My husband has a role in organizing Comcast cares day. It is such a nice event, we get to spend time together and help the community. This year they captured this adorable video of Keira and her Daddy.

Always good to be home!

Keira was discharged around 5 P.M. last night. This was our toughest hospital stay yet. Some of the side effects of the Chemo are starting to occur and they make Keira very uncomfortable. She was as always a total trooper. We have to get through one more 4 to 5 day stay in the next couple of weeks and then we are done with scheduled admissions for a while. You can't really tell in the picture but Keira's hair is coming in, we know she'll loose it again but it would be cool if she had some coverage for the summer!

Back in for Chemo

Keira made counts so we are back in the hospital for 4 or 5 days. I keep thinking that this must get easier with time and I really really hope that is true. We are in a different area of the hospital because the oncology unit is full and it makes a huge difference. I hope this stay goes by very quickly.
