School Days, School Days…
I think the letters say it all! Just click on the icons to see Morgan and her classmates journal entries this week. Morgan LOVES being back at school. Her teachers said that she jumped right back into the swing of things. The alarm went off at 6:20am this morning, and 5 minutes later Morgan sat […]
Hats off to Friends Select
Morgan is very fortunate to attend a wonderful school here in Philadelphia. The environment could not be better, especially when being thrown this curve ball. Today Morgan headed back to school. We are taking everything one-day-at-a-time. Teacher Debbie sent me video from today, but I am not a techy (tecky – whatever) and could not […]
Today’s News
Treatment day went….well….not great, but Morgan did the best she could. It was a scary treatment for her today. However, we are thru it, and hopefully will not EVER have to repeat it. TOMORROW, we are hoping to go BACK TO SCHOOL!! Morgan is very excited, but I am finding it difficult to bring her […]
Sunday, the day of rest…
But not for Morgan. We had visits from Ava and Max today – thanks guys, she really does love seeing her friends, even if she gets tired and needs to rest. While we are out, it is difficult to try and reel Morgan in, and explain that we can’t just go anywhere. Too many variables […]
While we were out…
Friday began our first day of out-patient treatment. We are taking the out-patient one day at a time. Morgan did well with the IV and was a real trooper through the process. We moved into the condo this weekend for one-story living, since Morgan’s leg muscles are a little weak due to the medications she […]
And the Rollercoaster ride begins…
News from the medical front…Morgan’s cancer is in question as to remission. Therefore, the doctors would like to re-start her treatment from the beginning…better to be safe than sorry. What this means is that on Friday we will begin her treatments as we did when we first found out about her leukemia. We are hoping […]
There’s no place like home…
[singlepic=109,320,240,,center] So I learned a new bad word this weekend…FEVER. We would have been going home Sunday if Morgan had not had a 103% temperature! She won for having the highest on the floor in a while – woo hoo for us. We did sneek out of the hospital for some fresh air for 5 […]
Remission
That’s right, I said it! The doctors are 95% positive Morgan is in remission, and we should be home by Monday!!! She had her bone marrow tap this morning, and through the microscope there seems to be less than 1% of the leukemia cells left in her marrow. If her counts stay consistent, we may […]
5 days…
Sorry for not writing but I was kicked out of the hospital Monday night with what we thought was food poisoning, and turned out to be a stomach virus some of the other parents on the floor had come down with – NOT FUN! Worse, I lost NO WEIGHT!! Monday, Max visited with her mom […]
9 days…or less!
Reports from the medical staff of “Team Morgan” let us know that all of her abnormal pre-B cells are no longer in the blood floating around in her body. What this means is that she has less pre-B cells, or Blasts, inside her bone marrow. This is what we have been waiting to happen. As soon […]
