Thurs. Oct. 19th
Well our Dr. was in this morning and everything is going well, he's quite happy. He thinks we'll probably be able to go home sometime next week. She's scheduled for her 2 IV chemos on Saturday and her LP chemo which she had on Tues., she will have another one this Tues. coming and if everything goes well with that we'll be homeward bound in a couple days after that. YAHOO! Meghan's face just lite up when he said that, she's had enough of this place and is ready to leave. Of course we'll still be coming back as an outpatient for chemo but that's okay. Also we'll have to be very careful with the whiteblood cell count as that's when she'll be more at risk for infection.
So keep your fingers crossed everyone as we hopefully will be coming home soon, YIPEE!!!!!!!!!!!
Love
Michelle

Hello,
I am a friend of Vanessa's. My daughter was diagnosed with a very aggressive brain tumour at 15 months old and as a result my husband, daughter and I spent 8 months living at Sick Kids. Although my daughters illness was very different from that of Meghans, I have become an "expert" in hospital life and oncology procedures. If you have any questions that you'd like to ask a mom who has lived through an oncology protocol, please feel free to Email me at lcompagnon@cogeco.ca. I can definately relate to your anxiety, frustration and fear. They should have a course at Sick Kids for parents on how to understand forgien accents. We are so blessed that it is a top notch hospital that attracts the most brillant minds from all over the world but this does present challanges. I pray for your strength during this roller coaster ride that will lead Meghan back to good health.
Take good care,
Lesley
