And the Results are Good!

Greta's scans came back and she is still cancer free. So we are worry free for 3 more months until the next tests. Thanks so much for all the positive thoughts and the prayers!

We hope everyone enjoys Thanksgiving, we sure will!

Scan Day

Today was Greta's 3 month CT and bone scan. Once again it was a long day at the hospital, started at 8:30 and home at 3:30. Greta did great though and is probably the best 3 year old at entertaining herself in a small closet sized room that I know! Now it's the waiting game for results. Which means anxious days at the Betz house.

In other news, Greta celebrated her 3rd birthday yesterday. What a great milestone for all of us. It was over 18 months ago that Greta started treatment. In those days I sometimes questioned whether this was a birthday we'd ever get to celebrate. I tried to push those thoughts out of my mind as quickly as they came in. They mostly came in moments when I'd be shopping and pick out something for Greta for the next season, or the next size up and wonder if I should even buy something she may never wear. But I shook those thoughts and filled her closet with clothes for the next year or two in advance.

We had two celebrations, a family party on Friday and on her birthday we took Aunt Kari and Aidan to Chuck E Cheese, something she wasn't allowed to do while she was under going treatment. She had a great time and I'm sure we'll hear the pleas to go back a lot!

We are thankful for the prayers for good test results and we'll report back as soon as we get them.

Love,
The Betz Family
