some progress


Paige's MRI of last week showed that the chloroma tumor thing on the back of her brain has shrunk some. Same perimeter, but less inside. And her spinal cancer levels have dropped significantly. So she gets some more intrathecal chemo, over the next week or so, and the radiation docs are going to examine her Tuesday when she is having one of her "special naps" (as I call them when talking to Paige) to map out what they want to do in terms of radiation. I think she still has another MRI coming up soon. It's all a little jumbled in my brain, but basically, they are taking all the steps they need to prepare her for a bone marrow transplant, which I am guessing could happen within 3 or 4 weeks.


Today we were snuggling on the foldout couch in her hospital room (she had a fever the other day, so she's back in the hospital) all cozy and warm together, and she looked at me and grinned and said, "Cuddly cuddly cuddly!"
