Stats

1. Bridget did get an earlier appt. to Lutheran General w/ Dr. Shah, a pediatric neurologist that we know 2 families have been to and are pleased. We will visit him at noon on Monday, March 31st. The appt. originated before she actually had her 4th and most serious seizure last Thursday. The ER doc consulted with Dr. Shah and she's on meds for now, but will find out more obviously on Monday.

2. Bridget will also see Dr. Smith at Rush in Chicago. We used our contact-the COO- to get in there on April 16th. We did want to see Dr. Hydemann, but was given to Smith's office instead... will be checking that out after the beginning of next week.

3. After chemo #2, I was pretty wiped out. Thank God for all the offers of help and plans I made for the week (esp since it's at home for the kids and myself). Donna L helped with the kids twice this week, Sharon and her neighbor made me enough food to survive until June, Val cam from Indy to be my caretaker, nanny and housewife, and Harrison had a minute to minute plan of fun. He's really tired today!!!

4. Got a blood check today, low, but no worries. My hat collection is complete- thanks to my generous family. That is extremely helpful b/c it's cold up here! And...my oncologist is under the belief that my tumor is actually smaller. Wahoo!!!

GO TEAM!
