Yesterday Greta had another CT Scan to determine the progress of her treatment. We are thrilled to inform everyone that the treatment is going well, her tumor has lost 70% of its mass. So to say the treatment is going well is an understatement. The doctors are happy with the progress. We will pray that her next round of treatment goes as well.
Tonight will be the first night in 16 days all 4 members of the Betz family will sleep under the same roof. We were able to bring Greta home this afternoon and we were welcomed home with a sign over our front door reading "Welcome Home Greta Girl" and balloons on the mailbox courtesy of our wonderful neighbors. After a few minutes of snuggling with Daddy on the couch Greta fell fast asleep, safe and sound and happy. Gavin welcomed home his sister with a kiss as she slept, then was happy to run outside and ride his bike.
We closed our wonderful day with an ice cream social at our neighbors (in honor of Gavin's friend, Emma's 5th Birthday) both Greta and Gavin happily sleeping in their own beds and a quiet evening for Mom and Dad together for the first time in over 2 weeks.
There hopefully won't be much to report on in the next few days. Greta will return to the hospital Friday for her next treatment which will run for 5 days, then if all goes well, back home next Wednesday for a few days.
Thanks again for the continued support over the last 2 weeks, we are extremely grateful.
With love,
Randy, Kristi, Gavin and Greta

Yeah God! We have been praying for Greta since one of your neighbors shared the news with us.
We will continue to pray for a complete healing in her. Trust that you have been experiencing the love and peace of Jesus through this trial.
