Paige's Diagnosis


Four weeks and one day ago, our daughter Paige (21 months old) was diagnosed with AML Leukemia. She has since begun her chemotherapy, and completed her first 10 day course last week. She begins her second course in one or two weeks. The protocol for this kind of Leukemia is to give the patient a bone marrow transplant after the second round of chemo, so we are planning on having that happen in February, at the Dana Farber Institute in Boston. Luke, her 3 1/2 year old brother, is going to be the donor.
