Thursday 3/12/09

Well today was a good day. My apt. with the Dr.'s went great. It could have been worse. But thanks to all the prayers from family, friends, and prayer groups, churches, Father Manny, and the list goes on and on and on. Dr. Boop and Dr. Vivvian, Dr.Gajjar, told me it's a slow growing, low grade tumor. It has not spread to any other parts of my body and my spine looks clear. We will start radiation ASAP and hope to make it smaller. If needed in time we will have to do alittle cemo., but for now it looks like radiation will be enough. The Doctor says this type of tumor does not spread but can grow to be larger. If that was to happen that would not be good, so we must try to make it smaller or even go away if possible. I will be here for 6 to 7 more weeks maybe longer depending on the treatments and the outcomes. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR ME AND ALL THE OTHER CHILDREN AT ST.JUDES WHAT A WONDERFUL PLACE FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. WE ALL HAVE SO MUCH HOPE AND THAT CAN GO A LONG WAY HERE. LOVE DANIELLE (HOPE) GREAT DR.'S AND NURSES, STAFF

  17. Hey Danielle! Well, only a few more days until Aunt Fuzzy, Mom and I get to come and see you!!!! I can't wait! We're bringing so many hugs and kisses with us that, as Pop would say, we're going to need a U-HAUL-IT to bring them! Oh yea, we can't forget your cookies -- oozing with chocolate chips! Do you know if there is a good Mexican restaurant in Memphis? We could go grab some food Friday night, but no Marguaritas for you missy! Can you tell I'm hungry right now? Anyway, we all can't wait to see you and I hope you're feeling better each day!

    I Love You!
    Aunt Lisa
