We are back home from Providence Hospital (not a big trip since the hospital is five minutes from our house). Ended up coming home on Sunday afternoon. Kayla did not have fever since Thursday but her blood count was low, in fact she had a Hemoglobin transfusion on Saturday and a Platelets transfusion on Sunday.
Her blood count was back to normal when we left the hospital yesterday therefore she does not have to be given the daily G-CSF shots. Needless to say, Kayla was very happy to come back home. She had repeatedly complained about being “stucked in that hospital room” without going to play and without going to O’Charlies for dinner, anyway you get the picture. She told Linda last night that she wanted to have grits with lots of cheese for breakfast.
Kayla finally had a chance to open presents from Tia Lilly and Abuelita. Alex had his chance earlier in the week. They were both thrilled to open boxes and play like brother and sister (or should I say fight like brother and sister). I know Alex is starting to feel left out, please pray that we will have wisdom to care for his needs as well as Kayla’s.
We are still scheduled to be at St Jude in Memphis on Monday 9th for MRI and CT scans. It is unclear at this point what the next step would be, what is clear is our belief in God and his mighty power, our knowledge that Kayla will be healed by whatever means The Father chooses and that the name of Jesus is to be glorified every step of the way.
