Well sarah knew what it was before they ate it and they all whined about it
but after eating it they said it was good

 

[suzannef]

That's great she even tried it. Angelina and Sydney would but Haley probably would turn her nose up at anything different.

We got some more promising news late this afternoon...the pulmonologists at Hopkins think that keegan's mass in his chest might be fluid filled and may respond to the medication he's on. This would mean no biopsy/surgery if it clears up on it's own. His doctor at the Peds oncology unit said that he doesn't think he's an oncology case, but they are going to continue to treat him and follow his case to see how it develops. He's going to call us in a couple of days with any new updates. It's great that they share his case with so many other professionals there to get so many opinions. It's been a long 48 hours coming from him being diagnosed with cancer to now possibly a fluid filled mediasternal mass possibly due to pnemonia. He slept all afternoon and is looking a bit better. He still has his "asthma" cough which makes me wonder if he's ever truly been asthmatic (he was diagnosed at 3) or if this mass has always been there (as hypothesized yesterday) and just recently been infected. He's going to head back to school tomorrow. I spoke with his school nurse and teacher and made sure that they are going to watch him like hawks. I had to get a "doctor's order" for his medication--the nurse said they can't just use a prescription. I'm going to take him in and make sure he feels ok being back and is doing ok walking, etc. He's pretty much been home since last Thursday. His teacher said she'd speak with his classmates about being very careful around him and not bumping him, rough housing,etc. I didn't want her to use the word tumor so kids wouldn't be scared or think it was contageous. I just hope he can make it a full day without falling asleep. He's been sleeping half the day the last several days. I'll make sure to have his teacher email me with how he's doing. We are really, really filled with much more hope tonight.

Great news Danielle!

Hey Guys

Sorry I haven't been around much this week. My mom was admitted to the hospital Monday ( I was called out of class) with a bad case of the flu and pnuemonia. They admitted 12 people in 12 hours with the same bug. She is still there but will be released tomorrow. The radiologist thought he saw something on the chest x ray so yesterday she had a CT scan. The great news it it came back clean today! It has been an awful 2 weeks for me. 1st Sarah with the high fever, Emma in the ICU and then my mom in the hospital.

Em will be going to Boston Children's on March 27th to see a new neuro.. That is my other good news today.

I feel like I have been living under a dark cloud.. Here's to better times. In fact my mom said she might have to take us on a cruise to celebrate everyone getting well.. Maybe it will be 2 for us!

I have been wondering about you all week I'm sorry about everything you have been going through, it's time for a break I'd say. You deserve at least 2 cruises
