Karlee had a wonderful clinic visit yesterday. It was the annual Christmas Party at clinic and Mrs. Faust and Mr. and Mrs. Claus were there. Karlee decided it was the real Santa because his beard was real and he knew that she didn't pick up her toys. Many of her friends from her trip to the Faust Ranch were there so she was excited to see them.
Her visit went fine. She had her port accessed without little or no fussing which is a big deal for her. After getting it done she said she didn't even feel it. She is so... brave. Her neutrophil count was in the 200 range so she will be unable to attend school through next Wednesday. She will get her blood draw next week and hopefully her levels will be up enough that she will be able to go to her Christmas Party at school on Friday.
The exciting news about Karlee's visit yesterday is that she only has a year of treatment left. She will complete her treatment on December 16, 2011. So she has 12 doses of Vincristin left and 4 lumbar punctures. After having so... many, the end is in sight.
