Playing hooky…
0Since Morgan’s 2nd grade class was away on an all-day outdoor fieldtrip, the two of us went out to play. When Morgan was in the hospital for the 30+ day stay, she missed several movies she had been hoping to see. No worries, they come …

Snow days…
We planned on being back at school yesterday, but Mr. Snowfall had a different idea. I convinced Morgan to let me sleep in a little – thank goodness, I got to sleep until 7am! Thanks to Rachel for the great playdate during our school day …

No bones about it…
Morgan had her bone marrow aspiration today. She did GREAT. IV – no problem. She told me that if you just breathe through it, and just decide that it won’t hurt, it won’t! Her only complaint was that she was so hungry. She had to …

He’s baaaaack….
Bruno, that is (the picture above is not Bruno – but close.) Our 11-year old pug. The Rosin family was SO amazing to take in our other child over this ordeal. I do not know how I can thank them. It was such a relief …

Somewhere over the weekend…
Fridays results from her treatment were, in my opinion, very good. Morgan seems to be “growing” her own white and red blood cells, and her ANC is 2107! When we left the hospital it was 328. Therefore, we are planning to be in school at …
