Quick Update

We're having a great weekend with the family. It's so nice to be home, although we have appointments at the hospital almost every other day. Today Greta had to go in to have her platelets checked and as expected they were very low and required a transfusion. The platelets help the blood to clot and prevent her from having nose bleeds and bruising. We're back in again Tuesday to check labs again and Thursday for a CT scan to check the progress of the tumor. Next Monday we'll check back in to start her 3rd round of chemo.

Yesterday the weather was finally warm enough that Greta was able to check out the new play set. She enjoyed climbing up the slide with Grandma Betz's help and sliding down on her belly. We have a toddler swing, but it wasn't long before Greta was insisting on sitting on the big kid swing.

Thank you again all the prayers. It means a lot to our family.

Love the Betz Family.
