Make-a-Wish

Turns out that Olivia will get a wish! All children with life-threatening illnesses are eligible and DF makes a point of referring all their patients. We won't say what she is wishing for until we know what is possible. I can only say that she is not being influenced by her parents! (Don't you think a (free) trip to Hawaii would be nice?)

We are nearing the end of the two-week break. Side effects were a little tougher this time around, but her counts are on their way back up and she is feeling pretty good. The plan is to start the next chemo on Monday.

Olivia also now has a tutor every day that we are home and she is feeling up to it. She started shortly after surgery and it is going very well so far. Just about caught up in all subjects (and ahead in Reading/LA). Nice to have a daily routine.

Olivia says hi and will write soon!
