Kylie's Birthday

I can't believe I haven't checked in since last week. Today we're going over to Ethan and Sherry's to celebrate Kylie's 4th birthday. Mom and Dad are coming for dinner later.

I think this week was a good one for everyone. My Dad had treatments everyday, but they went routinely. He met with the radiologist who will be doing the radiation treatment a week from tomorrow. They really liked that doctor and said he was so nice.

The plan is to go in for blood work Tuesday and potentially not have to do anything the rest of the week. If that happens, then Dad will check back into the hospital on Saturday, June 19th and start chemo. He'll do the two days of chemo, one of radiation and we are still planning on doing the bone marrow transplant on the 23rd or 24th. Then we see what happens.

I am very optimistic. I just feel pretty good about everything and even though I know Dad is nervous and really worried about how hard it's going to be on his body, I know he's going to get through it.

So, today, we put Leukemia out of our minds to put Kylie foremost in our hearts and I'm so excited to wish her a Happy Birthday. I can't believe she's 4! It's gonna be a good day.

God bless, Happy Sunday to you and I am sure you'll hear from me again soon. : )
