Round 9 and Counting...

We're back in the hospital this weekend for Greta's 9th treatment of chemo. Can you believe it? Nine rounds and she is still able to get her counts back up to keep up the every two week schedule. The doctors and nurses had warned us that she would never be able to maintain this aggressive schedule, but once again Greta has amazed them with her strength.

It looks like it's a great Labor Day weekend, and we intend to be home Monday morning first thing so we can enjoy the day at home with our family.

Thanks again to everyone for their prayers and notes of support. Thank you Kari for your help getting the word out there and posting the pictures of Greta on the blog. I love the pictures of her with Grammy sharing a laugh, it brings a smile to my face every time I see it!

With love,
The Betz Family
