Radiation Treatments Begin Again

Hi everyone,
Thought I would give you an update on what is going on. As you can see by my picture, I am still at Children's Hospital, but I definitely am feeling better. I'm wearing my pretty pink polka dot headband. I also have Tinkerbelle in bed with me. It is a present my cousin Randee brought me from Disneyland. She got me lots of goodies, including a Tinkerbelle necklace and a dolphin that I like.

I started receiving radiation treatments again yesterday. The doctors decided to keep me in the hospital while I receive the rest of my treatments so that they can manage my pain meds closely. They said I will have to stay until my bottom is healed and I no longer need any pain meds. I have to stay in my bed while I am here because they keep me hooked up to a machine that beeps everytime my heart rate or breathing gets too low.

The doctors are also changing my chemo therapy. Every third week I will have to stay in the hospital because I will receive chemo every single day that week. Right now I am not sure as to how long that will go on.

Well, that's all for now. Hugs and kisses to you all -- I love you!
Amelya
