I don't have much to say today, except that Jade is the same, still has the fever and bone pain, and we didn't get any of the blood results to find out if she has something viral or not. They are testing for mono and CMV. Looking at those symptoms, I don't believe it is either of them, but I would jump for joy if I was wrong. We should hopefully have those results tomorrow sometime. So look for a good news post! I am trying to distract myself, I can't just sit and think about it or I will put myself into a panic again. I think I almost had a panic attack when our pediatrician said he was in touch with our oncologist, I couldn't breathe and my heart was racing. Today was much better than yesterday mentally. I just decided there is nothing I can do until we know, so we will just live our lives normal. If this is something serious it will eventually rear it's ugly head. We'll find it. So as a distraction we went to my sister's today. Brinley's counts are too low to go do much of anything, so we spent the day there. It was nice and distracting. My doctor's office only got one call from me today instead of 5 :) Lucky them. I'll post more tomorrow. Thanks for checking in! And by the way, Brinley is doing great, the 3 week break from any chemo has been nice. I just wish she could have started maintenance this week, it sure would have been better timing for the baby coming, but oh well. Things can't be too perfect right?

I ran into your mom at the library the other day and luckily had another burning topic to discuss so we didn't have to bring this all up. I would have burst into tears which would probably put her in tears and who needs the kind librarian in tears? I can't believe I'm saying this but for once, I was thankful for the possible ban on pre-1985 childrens books...it gave me something else to talk about.

Talking about it or not, we're always thinking about you (Rachel Boyle too!!!).
