Minor Setback

Greta was feverish and a little too listless yesterday for comfort, so Randy and Kristi took her to visit the ER at about 3:30pm. Once there, doctors started her on antibiotics, and did a lot of testing to rule out possible infection. All of the lab results have come back clean so far, and her fever is down now. By yesterday evening she was more comfortable and settled into a room, probably to stay until sometime Sunday.

She's receiving a transfusion this afternoon, she needs to get her counts back up to where she can handle her next round of chemo. It looks like doctors will likely push her next treatment, which was supposed to be this coming Monday, back a little to Wendesday. This is only a small delay, and very common for kids receiving chemo - considering all of the great news we've been blessed to have these past several weeks, small setbacks like this are to be expected. Greta continues to be a standout little patient!

To those of you who we are planning to see tomorrow; our plans are still "on", and seeing you is something we're all very much looking forward to.

Thank you, once again, for all of the prayers and messages of support!
