Two Months

Today marks the 2 month anniversary of Kate's diagnosis of leukemia. I can't believe that it was only two months ago that she became ill because it feels considerably longer than that! I certainly never could have imagined that this is what 2007 held in store for us either. In any case, Kate, Jackson, Ava, Jason and I are mostly handling it well. There are definitely bad days but everyone has those, right?
Next Thursday will start her 8 week phase of chemotherapy called interim maintenance. This should be a relatively easy phase of treatment and will be a nice way to spend the rest of the summer.
Another nice way will be to decorate her room! That is going to be our challenge for the next 2 weeks so we'll see what we can get done. Of course I'll be sure to post pictures when it is completed. :)

I have not been able to stop thinking about Kate since we ran into each other at the pool last week. I am glad that I was able to google the blog and find it almost immediately and am passing the link on to many workers at the blast center who love you and your children and just think the world of your beautiful family :) im sure ill see you at the pool again soon. :)
love
