Back on track...

We got GREAT news at Kateli's appointment this morning. Her numbers have come back up...and with a vengeance!! :) She was at 2100 this morning, which is awesome!! Of course, she can't stay that high for a month, but it was great to hear that her bone marrow is functioning beautifully. So, what does this mean?? well, it means that after a week break from any chemo, our little girl is back on track with her treatment. She takes her nightly dose of chemo, her weekly dose, and she will be back on the steroid for another round of 5 days next week.

On another note, I learned that Joshua has a sinus infection and has now been prescribed an anitbiotic. He's been fighting a runny nose for the past 3 weeks, so I took him in this morning only to find out that he needed antibiotics. Please pray that he recovers from this quickly, and that Kateli continues healthy in the midst of our sickness (well, Joshua and mine--I'm getting over mine)

Thank you all for your continued prayers for our little girl...

Praise the Lord! We will be saying extra prayers during the steroid treatment.
Poor little Joshua, that must hurt (even sinus pressure hurts!).
Give the kids a kiss for us.

Glad to hear her counts are back high! Hope that she does not catch what Joshua has! Cute picture!

Dan, Marleny, Joshua and Katherine,
Praise the Lord for HIS answer to our prayers for Katherine. May she be completely healed and strengthened. May God help little brother Joshua as his body fights the sinus infection. Thank you for keeping us updated. You are loved and prayed for. Mom, Sue, Grandma, Grandma
