Update

We are still at Covenant and Addie is still pretty miserable with this mucositis!  Her counts are still low but are slowly coming up!  Her scans and tests are Thursday and Friday this week.  I spoke with Iowa City today and they would like to try and get them done if we can and I agreed, I just want to have them done and know where Addie stands with her cancer involvement!! Praying so hard... Please Lord let this cancer be gone and let us stay on protocol!!!  Praying also that her tests are all normal and no damage has been done to her precious little body!! Her back continues to bother her at times and I can't help but worry... I hate that I worry, I continue to try and pray it all away!!!  I have to trust in Him fully, He is and will always take care of her!

It is unclear as of right now if we will be able to have her scans Friday because of the mucositis, it may be too risky to sedate her with the sores.  The plan is to get transported to Iowa City tomorrow and have her tests completed on Thursday.  The sedation team will evaluate her and determine if it is safe to sedate her on Friday for the scans!  She has never had any complications thus far with sedation but we definitely don't want to take any chances!  

Covenant has been wonderful, they treat us so good here!! The staff really goes above and beyond to make us all comfortable!! We appreciate them and Dr. Van Sickle greatly, so thankful!! 

Gracie's 6th birthday is tomorrow... Such a bummer we will be separated but we are doing our best to still make it a wonderful day for her... She is so deserving of a special day, just for her!! She has been amazing through all of this!! All of our worlds were turned upside down and she has handled it wonderfully... Praise Jesus for that and so many other things!! 

Please pray for those counts to rise and the sores to disappear as quickly as they came!  Please pray that she will be HEALED!! 

Go Team Addie
