Crying happy tears!

The results of Keira's bone marrow biopsy are back and she is "within the normal range".... sounds so simple but it is proof that the Chemo is working and the cancer cells are being destroyed. If you've been following the blog you may recall that her doctor's expected her to be cancer free on Chemo in January but she wasn't and that changed her to a "high risk" patient. They were careful to point out to me when they shared the news that his doesn't change her treatment plan, she is still considered high risk. They also told me that her odds of being cured do not change. She still has an 80% chance of being cured and they won't consider her cured until she completes her treatment in two and half years and then stays cancer free without chemo for five years.

That being said, this is amazingly good news!!!! Now that we know the Chemo is working, it simply needs to stay that way...... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep thinking of and praying for our baby. She is one amazing little girl with an incredible spirit and a complete blessing to us. We know that all the positive energy being sent her way is helping to make her better.

I'm not sure how you are supposed to celebrate something like this.... I'm just so glad that we get to figure it out.
