NO MORE CHEMO!!!

It's been the longest wait ever and it has finally arrived. Yesterday, Ryla was officially OFF CHEMO!! You can imagine so much has just been lifted off our backs. I also wanted to tell you all that we are going to hold a No More Chemo party for her. It's not going to be a huge one like we planned at first but we will still have plenty of goodies for her ;)

Please come by her page and sign the guestbook so that she has something to look back on and see all the wonderful messages you sent her! ;)

5 MORE DAYS!!

I am so proud and happy to say that Ryla has only 5 more days left until NO MORE CHEMO!!!! It has been a bumpy ride for the past 2 years but now I'm glad that it's finally over.

As for her No More Chemo Party, we might postpone it but I will let everyone know the details about that. I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July!

Pneumonia

I haven't been able to keep everyone updated on her condition because we haven't had any internet for the past few weeks.

Our goal was to never be admitted in the hospital until the day of removing her portacath. But it didn't happen. On February 7th, Ryla was rushed to the hospital with a fever of 101.7. Daddy was away on Military training in Nevada at the time and Mommy, Ryla and Alex were all fighting a cold. Ryla of course had gotten worse out of all of us. She had a small case of pneumonia and doctors were able to treat it with two antibiotics.

Ryla is doing great now. She's over the pneumonia and is her happy little self again. She's actually gained her appetite back and is now 45 lbs!

I am happy to say that in less than 5 months, Ryla will be Chemotherapy-free and in September our little Ryla will start Kindergarten! No more shopping for toys this year. It's all about school supplies now!

I will also keep everyone updated on her No More Chemo party that we will be throwing along with her 5th Birthday.
