Hooray! Rosalie's neutrophil count is high enough to begin her eighth round of maintenance chemotherapy. Your dancing was not in vain.
I've adopted a tone of cautious optimism for this eighth round. While I could write something along the lines of, "This is her LAST round of chemo!" I recognize that this would be counting my chickens before they hatch . The truth is that we need her scans to continue to be clear. Otherwise, we are back to the drawing board. But I couldn't help but have a spring in my step when I went to the pharmacy to pick up Rosalie's chemotherapy. I told the pharmacist that no offense, but it would be great if I never had to see him again! :)
Please join me in praying that this really is Rosalie's last round.
Love,
Carolyn

My siblings and I span 11 years between us. That's 2 nonstop decades of teenage-dom! After my dad came home from my youngest sister's final parent-teacher conference, he sighed, "I love you guys, but I hope to one day live in an adolescent-free zone." I'm sure you're hugely grateful for all chemo has done, but not sorry to see it hit the high road, either. Love to all! Elisabeth Snell
