Healing

I meant to say in the last post that we are not too worried about the echo results. It is rare (according to the cardio nurse practitioner) that they find any problem in kids with cancer that are getting these tests due to chemotherapy. We probably won't be informed of any results at all unless of course there is a problem. So, I'm sure there is nothing to worry about on that front.

Madeleine is using her right leg more and more. She is starting to crawl forward now, a little at a time. I think it takes a lot of effort because she gets frustrated pretty quickly. Ryan and I have both seen her move her right leg forward in the last couple of days, which is a huge improvement. She is also becoming more interested in it, she tries to grab it with her hands and pull it up to her mouth. So, I think she is doing well with recovery for the leg.

Clinic tomorrow for counts. Hopefully she's on her way up, but I kind of have my doubts about that.
