Samantha was finally able to start her next round of chemo last night. Although she did not want to do it she did great. She has been very tired this past week and has not been real active. We are still trying to figure out what is causing her to have that choking cough every morning which leads to vomitting. Since she has returned from Memphis she has not had any seizures (we are keeping our fingers crossed) but had quite a few while she was there.
Her check up went well no new news really. She has now been off her steroids for 11 days and seems to be handling it okay. Her balance and her eye are looking great. She was very shaky for about a week but that does not seem to be as severe now. We are working on her appetitie or lack of I should say.
We don't know how fast her counts are going to drop again with this round of chemo but we are hoping to get her more active while she can get out of the house some. Please continue to pray for her.
With love,
Audra, Kurt, Christopher, & Samantha
