Greta was able to get started on chemotherapy Wednesday evening, the doctors started 2 of the 3 drugs that they planned to use, waiting on some improvement of a particular indicator before starting the third drug (wanted to make sure that her kidneys were working well before they put more strain on her body). They were able to go ahead with that yesterday morning. YAY!
Kristi and Randy have been able to alternate nights at home so Gavin gets some Mom and Dad time each evening, but of course they’re rushing back to the hospital first thing to be with Greta (and each other).
Greta’s still sleeping peacefully, letting the meds do their job. We’re all anxious to see her smiles again, we’re told that she will probably remain sedated and on her ventilator through sometime Saturday. We can’t wait to hear her giggles!
Randy and Kristi sure appreciate your thoughtful notes of encouragement, and of course we're all comforted knowing how many are praying for Greta's safekeeping, comfort and healing.
Hugs to all,
Kari

Praise God, on the bone and marrow testing.
I dont know you guys personely, but I feel I do.
I am Deb Vandenboss Tammie co-worker. I feel the pain that the family is going though. I am going through chemo myself. I am adult and can at least understand what is going on, this baby don't.
Your family is in my heart and prayers always.
"Fear not for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
Isaiah 41:10
Keep the Faith,
In christ Love,
Deb
